Sustainable Dartmouth
We aim to increase awareness of environmental issues amongst residents, Councils, businesses & other organizations from the Dartmouth Cluster of communities. We have launched a website forum, responded to the Dartmouth Neighbourhood Development Consultation, linked up with existing local sustainability groups and are developing publicity material for distribution to organizations, businesses & individuals. We meet fortnightly on Zoom, and new members are very welcome - email Sune to join.
