Your Community

Making a leap to a sustainable world means working together, sharing experience and knowledge. "Your community" brings stories of people working together to make a difference. Whether its community gardens, a housing association retrofitting insulation to old housing stock, a self build eco-community housing group or an in-school project this is the place to let the world know what you are doing and inspire the rest of us to follow your lead

As more users add their story to the site we will develop an interactive map - allowing you to put your project on the map and others in the area to find you. It could be a neighbour hood garden scheme or a local producer network like those created by the Inspirational "Incredible Edible".

No one really knows quite what a sustainable world is going to look like - this is a chance to share the task of finding out!
