A network all about tackling climate change in South Downs communities has just welcomed its 100th member.
Since launching in late 2024, the South Downs Climate Action Network has grown from strength to strength.
Hosted on Knowledge Hub, it allows local communities to share useful tips and stories around climate action.
Sara Osman, Climate Change Officer for the National Park, said: “It’s fast becoming a fabulous resource to inspire new action by learning from others.
“You can find information on understanding climate change, how to set up a community group, how to start a repair café or a library of things, funding opportunities, plus a whole lot more!
“It’s a great space to share resources and events, see climate action newsletters in one place and ask questions from the hive mind if you want to know about anything related to climate change and taking action.
“The South Downs Climate Action Network has members from community climate and environment groups, Eco Church groups and environmental organisations across the National Park and surrounding areas.”
