Opportunity to connect with Bristol’s community climate and nature network
Do you have an offer, opportunity, idea or project you would like to discuss with Bristol’s established community climate and nature network? The CCNA Network is a collection of organisations advocating for community-led action locally. We’re inviting climate, nature, resilience and just transition projects to connect with the network, gain community insights and help ensure Bristol’s efforts are joined up.
A thriving network of community organisations with climate and nature action plans has been developed in Bristol over the last five years, underpinned by our community climate and nature action model. This Bristol CCNA Network is now working together to advocate for the priorities identified in those plans, and identify opportunities for progress.
The network is made up of representatives from 30 organisations who all have experience of, and an interest in, community-led climate and nature action which makes life better for local people. We’ve recently welcomed three new partners to the existing membership; WECIL who are now leading on the Climate and Disability programme; The Diversity Trust who support the LGBTQIA+ community, and Carers Support Bristol & South Gloucestershire.
The network includes seven Community Advocates who are dedicated experts from community organisations across the city. They have wide ranging of experience of community-led climate and nature action, and valuable insights into just transition and community engagement.
