Over the past two years one of our residents, has set up and run South Wonston Recycling and attended the Parish Council meetings. Once the Parish Council had appointed a Councillor to take the Climate lead, they and a few other likeminded people met with Winchester Action on the Climate Crisis (WINACC). From this meeting in April 2022 South Wonston Sustainability was formed.
Everyone in the group gives their time voluntarily. We meet on a regular basis and are learning about the enormous changes we are facing.
We’re taking part in the Winchester Climate Action Network. At the start of this project, in 2021, Impact Reports were commissioned for all the Winchester parishes. Here’s South Wonston's Carbon Footprint Report.
South Wonston Sustainability is focusing on the following areas in which we can affect change and reduce our carbon footprint: Energy, Travel, Food, Circular Economy and Biodiversity.
Any resident is welcome to join.
As 2023 ends we’ve been looking back at what we’ve done since we started!
It’s easy to forget all the things we’ve done and tried to do, so, inspired by Jen Gale from Sustainable-ish, instead of a ‘to-do’ list we’ve put together a ta-da one! We’re looking forward to planning what we can do in 2024!
Thank you and well done to the volunteers of South Wonston Sustainability and to everyone who’s supported our events. We know how busy life can be and we’re really grateful for your time and efforts.
With more volunteers the more we can do! If you have an idea, a sustainable activity or no knowledge but some spare time and are interested in finding out how you might be able to help. Please get in touch.
