Education and engagement are vital in tackling climate change. By providing knowledge and awareness about the environment, we empower individuals to make informed decisions and take meaningful action. Engaging people in the climate challenge fosters a sense of responsibility and collective effort, driving positive change for a sustainable future.
Over fifty organisations already taking action on climate change, social justice and recovering nature in South Devon are invited to a Round Table Discussion at Follaton House, home of South Hams District Council on Wednesday 10th September at 3pm.
The Sustainable South Hams crew paid a visit to the Box in Plymouth to see the NDP Circus performance of the Devon Red-Legged Robberfly.

We began a perennial wildflower meadow project in our local park in 2018 and have since begun managing several road verges and an area of the churchyard for wildlife and wildflowers, working with SHDC. Our other activities include planting fruit and pollinator-friendly trees around the local area, running gardening schemes, holding summer competitions, planting spring bulbs and working with local community groups to host events and guided walks.
