Our 12 steps to transitionLocal links
Transition Town Bridport wants to create links
with any local group or organisation which is working towards our shared goals
of reduced dependency on fossil fuels, resilience in the face of peak oil and
the promotion of sustainability and local self-reliance.
Creating links with each other and working together is
all-important.
Additionally, we would urge relevant organisations
to have a presence on our core group.
If you
feel your organisation fits the criteria and you would like to be associated
with us please contact us through the website.
See below for details of those already on
board.
