We had a fantastic launch of the CR3 project last Saturday as part of the #ScotClimateWeek.
We came together to celebrate the funding awarded to us by The National Lottery Community Fund‘s Climate Action Fund, our partnership between Edinburgh and Lothians Regional Equality Council (ELREC), NKS – Networking Key Services & SCORE Scotland, and, most importantly, the diverse communities we have the honour of working with.
We also celebrated our incredible volunteers! In the past year, more than 80 dedicated volunteers have contributed their time and efforts to our project.
Some of them have gone above and beyond, earning themselves Climate Heroes Certificates for their outstanding contributions.
A special thanks to Sarah Boyack MSP, Shadow Cabinet Secretary for Net Zero, Energy & Just Transition, for her meaningful contribution as guest speaker during the event and to our Chair Foysol Choudhury MSP for speaking at the event and handing certificates to our climate heroes.
Tackling the climate crisis is the work of our lifetimes, and we take immense pride in empowering diverse communities so they can be included in the just transition, as well as be part of the solution.
