A group of ordinary people
trying to make St Albans District
a more environmentally sustainable place to live.
What we do
Together, as ordinary people, we find positive and creative ways to act locally
– across St Albans, Harpenden and villages –
to raise awareness and address the challenges of climate change, live more sustainably, and move towards a low-carbon economy.
We are a member of the UK-wide Transition Network
