Two major events have united Surrey community groups, businesses, academia and the public sector to create real solutions. We've learned something vital: things can change when local people shape climate action. When communities have a genuine voice in decisions, we achieve more. Change works best when it starts with those it affects most.
In September 2024 we ran a Doughnut Economics Workshop.
In September 2023 we brought together three of the UK’s leading climate thinkers – Lord Deben (John Gummer), Natalie Bennett and Ed Straw — to ask “What’s Stopping Us Stopping Climate Change?”.
The projects we are now undertaking are underpinned by learnings from these events.
