We draw on our ‘on the ground’ insights and perspectives to make evidence-based policy asks to national government. This helps set the conditions for local authorities to deliver impactful, ambitious climate action plans. We’re urging the UK government to back the smart policies that will help councils, communities and businesses secure a fairer zero carbon future. We work in coalition to deliver a bigger impact including with the Blueprint Coalition and Warm this Winter.
