Sustainability plan questionnaire results
Over Summer 2022, ACCG members shared their ideas about what they want to see included in an Ampthill Town Council Sustainability Plan. Here are the results!
This is the Ampthill Town Council Sustainability Plan adopted on 22nd February 2023 and due for its first review in September 2023. ACCG has contributed significantly to this plan, working with Ampthill Town Council and with reference to other town and parish council Climate Change Action Plans, including the Central Bedfordshire Council 2020 Sustainability Plan.
Seasonal resources
ACCG contributors have put together their ideas for easy actions to make your Christmas celebrations more sustainable. Their ideas have featured in The Bedfordshire Oracle for December 2021
Great Big Green Week Window Poster
Write in an action you're taking for the environment and the climate and display your poster in a window, or anywhere it can be seen. Let's make it clear that we are concerned enough about the planet to make our own changes and that we want our local, national and international leaders to make changes too.
