The Climate Action Plan is being adapted to neighbourhoods. Following the receipt of funding from the Mayor of London’s Future Neighbourhoods 2030 Programme, the council worked with partners across the area to create a Waterloo and South Bank Future Neighbourhoods 2030 Strategy and Action Plan.

Lambeth Climate Partnership platform

The Lambeth Climate Partnership is a growing network of organisations, businesses and community groups across the borough undertaking climate action in Lambeth. 

The partnership is for organisations from all sectors committed to taking climate action in their objectives, operations, logistics, building management, staff activities, and in the impact on the health and wellbeing of the communities they serve.

It aims to create cross-sector collaboration, enabling knowledge and expertise sharing, and to move Lambeth towards its net zero targets in collective action to achieve its 2030 vision.

The Lambeth Climate Partnership platform showcases the ongoing climate action of the group, advertises opportunities for residents to get involved, and monitors the progress of the partner’s actions against the 20 goals of Lambeth’s Climate Action Plan.

 

Head to the platform to read case studies, live project updates, and the latest climate news from members. It also includes a visual dashboard that tracks the borough’s progress towards our climate goals, ensuring transparency and accountability, and maps climate action happening across the borough.
