Leicestershire Together Declaration on Climate Change

The declaration has been developed by ENABLE on behalf of Leicestershire Together for all Leicestershire organisations wishing to commit to tackling climate change. The Declaration is a public statement from an organisation wanting to tackle the issue of climate change by taking action in their organisation and in their communities.

ENABLE has developed the declaration, adapted from the Nottingham Declaration, for all Leicestershire organisations wishing to commit to tackling climate change. Any organisation, whether a business, charity, voluntary organisation, school, Parish or Town Council, Strategic Partnership, police, health or fire services can sign up to. A number of organisations have already signed including the Leicestershire and Rutland Federation of Women’s Institutes and The Leicestershire Rural Community Council. See the list of organisations that have already signed up.

Please join us by committing your organisation to face this challenge by:

Environmental Action for a Better Leicestershire (ENABLE) will be provide you with an information pack and guidance on how to take practical steps to tackle climate change, including copies of the Declaration for display in your premises. ENABLE has also produced a Climate Change Strategy and developed a Climate Change Action Plan for Leicestershire. This is a generic Action Plan which organisations can adapt according to their circumstances. A directory for further information on climate change is also included.
