The award has been made for the remainder of the 2023-4
financial year, to undertake work in early spring across all three local
authorities in Ayrshire & Arran, led by the Energy Agency, and partnered
with The Conservation Volunteers; Let’s LOOC; Radio City Association; Organic
Growers of Fairlie; Woodland Wakeup; Arran Eco-Savvy; Arran Pioneer Project;
East Ayrshire Coalfield Environment Initiative and Not1More.
Early activity from the Hub includes incredible work across
the region in community-led renewable energy; nature-connectedness for young
people and families; raising awareness of nature based solutions models; home
and business energy transformation; eco-food and climate cafes; local growing
and seed stewardship; citizen science and practical conservation; e-bike
trails, cycling and walking eco-mobility events; talks and film screening
connecting Ayrshire with the global grassroots climate movement and more!
These and other workstreams will increase awareness and
understanding of climate change, provide sharing and learning opportunities and
showcase and promote positive community efforts.
