About us

Market Drayton Climate Action is a voluntary community association. We focus on a range of issues within our Working Groups.

Our aims are:

  • To raise awareness within the community of Market Drayton and surrounding district of climate change, its causes and impacts
  • To support action locally to reduce climate impact, as a community and as individuals
  • To promote our local voice to policy-makers in support of urgent action to minimise climate change and to ameliorate its effects

We are affiliated with Friends of the Earth Climate Action Network, Zero Carbon Shropshire, and the Shropshire Good Food Partnership.
