Constitutional Aims  

In Greening Denmead, we aim to be a focal point and catalyst for local community action to address the climate and ecological emergencies in the village of Denmead, Hampshire, UK.  

As a result of our work, people who live or work in Denmead will benefit from being part of a better-connected community that: 

• Has improved biodiversity and natural ecosystems and has greater appreciation of these for their ecosystem services

• Reduces greenhouse gas emissions and works towards being carbon negative

• Reduces unnecessary waste and works towards a regenerative circular economy

• Is more resilient to the impacts of a rapidly changing climate, for example by addressing food security and health concerns and promoting community spirit

• Overall, is more aware of the local climate and ecological challenges facing our village and takes greater responsibility for addressing them

We will do this by: 

• Setting up working groups that take effective local action, supported by experts where possible

• Engaging the whole community. This will include raising awareness of achievable steps to take and behaviours to change that will make a difference, drawing ideas from the successes of similar campaigns elsewhere

• Connecting together any residents, community groups and businesses who have existing projects and ideas that will make a difference in our community, to help these have more impact

• Encouraging people to have fun, make friends and support each other while doing the above
