During September and October, we are hosting a series of interactive workshops for locals to feed into our new climate strategy being developed to cover the next five years. 

We’ve also published a survey through which you can have your say in addition or as an alternative.

These workshops are for any people who live, work or study in Richmond upon Thames who would like to input into the new 2025 to 2030 climate strategy, with no prior climate-related knowledge or experience required. 

Come along to hear about the local progress made since we declared a climate emergency in 2019 and share your ideas, opinions and priorities for local climate action for the next five years in a friendly atmosphere. 

The workshop on 26 September is resident-focused. The workshop on 16 October is specifically for those who would like to input from the perspective of a local business or community group working locally. 

In-person workshop for residents:

• Date: Thursday 26 September
• Time: 6 to 7.30pm
• Location: York House, Richmond Road, Twickenham, TW1 3AA

If you are unable to attend one of these sessions, or indeed have additional feedback you’d like to contribute, we have published a comprehensive survey to capture your thoughts and feelings about climate change and action locally.

The deadline to complete this survey is Friday 20 October 2024. If you need to request a paper questionnaire or any other format, contact climatechange@richmond.gov.uk, or call 020 8891 1411 and quote 'Richmond Climate Strategy Survey'.
