Chorlton Climate Action Workshop

We are holding a Climate Action Workshop on Thursday 23rd January at The Edge Theatre, Manchester Road, M21 9JG from 6pm to 8pm.

In July, Manchester City Council declared a climate emergency and set out a firm commitment to build on work taking place in the city to reduce carbon emissions and to accelerate progress towards a zero carbon future.

We want to work with local residents to see what we can do here in our community to help meet the challenge of climate breakdown and realise ambitions for a healthy, safe, sustainable Chorlton.

This workshop will focus on the practical actions that we can take as local groups, businesses and citizens to create change in our community to combat the climate emergency here and now. And to explore how local councillors and council officers can best support.

The workshop will help shape an action plan for Chorlton that we can continue to develop through an ongoing process of collaboration, building on existing action being taken at both a local and city wide level. This will include discussion of the climate action ideas that emerged through discussions at the ‘Chorlton Great Get Together’ in June 2019 and the ‘Chorlton Great Get Together Again’ event in November 2019.

The workshop is open to anyone who lives, studies or works in Chorlton ward. Check with us if you are not sure which ward you are in.

To help us keep track of numbers and to plan the workshop effectively please email Nahla Eljack (n.eljack@manchester.gov.uk) to confirm your attendance. If you can’t make it this time but would like to be involved, please do let us know (Cllr.eve.holt@manchester.gov.uk).

We look forward to working together on this.

If you have any questions or comments please feel free to get in touch. We do hope that you can join us. Best wishes,

Eve, John and Matt, Chorlton Councillors
