As a council we work to engage with our local community at all stages of the Climate Change programme and encourage resident feedback through meetings and consultations on the climate change programme.
During the drafting of our Climate Change Strategy 2022-24, we consulted our residents to ensure their opinions and priorities were included in the strategy. The outcome of the Climate Change Strategy Draft Consultation can be read here Climate Change Strategy Consultation Outcomes Report 2022
We have previously organised a climate debate between local schools and local councillors, attended school assemblies, delivered a school art competition on climate change and community tree planting events. We also meet with independent community groups to discuss the implementation of the council's climate action plan.
