Get Involved
In 2025, Council and the Climate Commission ran a pioneering Community Climate Conversation programme — supported by Innovate UK's Net Zero Living programme — to ensure that local people could help shape our climate priorities. 15 residents engaged their communities and gathered insight from 80+ local people, generating 50 ideas for action across transport, energy, housing, biodiversity, planning, waste and environmental protection. Those ideas are now shaping both the Commission's work and Council's Climate Change Strategy & Action Plan.

Building on that success, a Citizens' Forum and Youth Panel are now being developed as part of the Commission's Phase II — giving residents an ongoing role in shaping local climate action.
