Climate Change

Climate Change is one of LVSC’s key strategic themes and we believe that all voluntary & community sector (VCS) organisations - not just 'green' groups - play a key role in tackling this issue and that together we can make a big difference.

Climate Change Leaders is an initiative which started in 2011 to actively engage the mainstream VCS in carbon reduction activities by working with infrastructure organisations to help them to become leaders and advocates on climate change. The work will be to support the link between expert green organisations and the mainstream voluntary sector.

This project is funded by City Bridge Trust

Vision for the project

London's VCS becomes fully aware about climate change and its impact on London and the most vulnerable in the capital and is enabled and empowered to make low carbon choices and adopt low carbon behaviour.
London's VCS infrastructure organisations become skilled leaders that fully support mainstream organisations on climate change issues and ultimately support London's transition to a low carbon city.
