Celebrating climate champions

Is your parish or town council a trailblazer in climate resilience? Does it demonstrate a deep understanding of climate change impacts and take proactive steps to mitigate, adapt, and build resilience for its community? If so, it’s time to shine a spotlight on their efforts!

The Climate Response of the Year award honours parish or town councils that lead by example in climate action, showcasing long-term strategic thinking, robust community engagement, and effective partnerships. This award is a testament to local councils’ vital role in preparing and protecting their communities against climate change.
