Community groups
Community groups can play an essential role in driving local action to tackle climate change.
By looking at your own organisation and for opportunities to be more environmentally friendly, you could help inspire others to act too. Often, these actions can reduce energy and other costs, freeing up money to be spent on what means the most to you and your community.
Visit our webpages on support for your community and how to get involved in schemes ranging from sustainable travel, to protecting your local environment.
