Course outcomes

You will walk away from our full-day course with an understanding of:

  • what the climate emergency is;
  • how soon we need to act;
  • the scale of the action;
  • what part individuals and organisations in Cumbria can play in the bigger picture.

You will gain:

  • more confidence in your knowledge on the subject;
  • an improved ability to share what you have learnt with others and to inspire change within your community;

Most importantly, you will leave feeling inspired, aware of the scale of the challenge, and positive about the effect you can have within your home, community or workplace.
