Specific activities include:

• Conducting needs-based focus groups and participatory action research at a local level in communities.

• Reviewing current local policies in relation to the areas of focus and needs expressed by communities during engagement with them at the local level.

• Developing and delivering practical skills training at all levels of stakeholder engagement in relation to implementing different parts of the focus areas.

We provide consultancy advice at various levels of decision-making across Greater Manchester in support of fostering a transition to a more ecologically, socially and economically sustainable future.

We explore practical and accessible nature-based solutions to climate change mitigation and adaptation that work at a local level and are informed by people’s needs.

We bridge the gap between strategy and action by offering consultancy, training, research, and project facilitation around nature recovery and climate mitigation and adaptation.

What we do

We are especially interested in promoting ways of working with nature to grow food, and nurturing systemic changes to promote wellbeing and resilient communities.
