May 2025 Update: Eco Together is working on a new section for our materials to add a Nature and Environment Section. We are looking for funding to help produce the materials and launch them to new and existing groups in the autumn of 2025. 

​

In order to reach more people in the UK we will be shortly be advertising a number of volunteer roles throughout the UK to help us build and deliver programmes as well as adminstrative and Trustee roles. 

​

We are planning a series of virtual workshops for people interested in starting a group in their own area. 

​

We have proved that the programme works and helps people make changes and start staking action .

Since 2021 we have had over 150 participants in 30 diverse groups of neighbours, friends, eco groups, faith organisations, small businesses, social enterprise, councils, supported living and social housing. Our programme has been self-organised by some groups, and run as a taught course for others. We have had great feedback:

​

"It's good to be able to come together with a group of like-minded colleagues...We're able to generate ideas for action that we probably wouldn't otherwise if we weren't in the group"

​

"Very good choice of powers ranging from individual to making a wider impact if wished".

​

"I've met members of my community I haven't had the chance to before".

​

"I enjoy the open environment to be able to discuss various topics and hear & learn from others. I like the list of suggested actions provided as this encourages me to think beyond the discussion". 

​

Here are some examples of actions people have chosen, reflecting all four Eco Together powers: 

​

"Increased my confidence raising climate emergency in conversation - set plan in motion for eco-themed updates via my local Facebook page, distributed info to the community on the recent solar panel group-buy, assessed some of my consumption patterns and come up with alternatives to buying new clothes"

​

"Committed to a weekly organic veg box, cut down on gas consumption, committed to solar panels, and no-fly holidays, contacted the council about unnecessary use of polluting equipment, felt braver about talking to people about environmental issues".

​

"I now turn off my stand-by devices at night. I pick up plastic in the street/pavement to keep it out of the sea. I joined a local environmental group".
