The Community Development Foundation has just published this free guide, Green Up! It provides local people, community and volunteer groups with everything they need to work productively with their councils on environment and sustainability issues. It is a plain English guide that explains how local groups can use everything from Local Area Agreements to Sustainable Community Strategies to get their work supported.
Green Up contains several hands-on examples from groups such as local Transition Towns, civic societies and community gardens. It also has tips from local group members who are successfully working with their council on issues relating to sustainability and the environment.
The guide can be downloaded from http://www.cdf.org.uk/web/guest/publication?id=142955 or by clicking on the image above.
