AMBLESIDE ACTION FOR A FUTURE is a network of local residents working together to mitigate climate and environmental breakdown and build community resilience.
OUR MISSION STATEMENT
As Ambleside Action for a Future we will do as much as we can locally and nationally to slow global warming and mitigate the effects of climate breakdown. We will seek to co-create a kind, inclusive, cohesive and resilient community embracing as many people in the Ambleside area as possible to provide mutual emotional and practical support in the face of the worsening effects of climate breakdown.

Five minute community survey
Your chance to tell us whether you would like to take part in any of our Ambleside to Zero carbon projects, reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to our goal. Complete our survey here. |
We meet once a month, and smaller groups meet up in the interim to work on different projects. Everyone who shares our concerns is welcome. Even if you feel you have little to contribute your presence is significant. Many people are in the group out of a deep concern for their own children and grandchildren – or a more over-arching concern for the future of humanity as a whole. We seek to value and respect each person and their input, and to be a place where people can share their thoughts and their feeling about the accelerating degradation of the earth and the imminent danger we face. For some people, the importance of the group is simply to be with others who take climate breakdown seriously.
