Sustainable Northwich CIO

Helping our Northwich community grow and become 'green'.

Transition Northwich runs projects which foster stronger local communities, helping us all live more sustainable lifestyles and address the Climate and Ecological Emergency. We support other community groups and campaign to local government, help to rewild public areas, plant trees at schools and are restoring an Orchard. We hold monthly open meetings, run a reading group and craft sessions, offer free Tai Chi sessions and share skills in our new community garden: Rod's Secret Garden. After 6 years of establishing ourselves in the town, we became a Charitable Incorporated Organisation in December 2019 with the aim of raising more funds to support our growing membership.

Why the community needs us
We come together to make choices for a better future. Learning how to live a greener lifestyle.

Our impact on the community
Our volunteers and participants feel a sense of reconnection to nature and one another. This builds confidence, strengthens mental-health and builds a real sense of community.

Volunteers needed

We welcome all volunteers. We have lots of ways to get involved from spreading the word, to gardening, making signs and helping to run events such as apple pressing right through to fundraising and web design.
