Get involved

There are several ways in which you can get involved:

Firstly, we ask you to make the Green Capital Pledge, which can be made easier with guidance from our pledge documents (Annual Report Form and Your Businesses Step by Step), but if you would like to come along to some of our meetings first, then please do so – our diary is here: Green Capital Calendar

 

The most important thing that you can do as a member is to try to help deliver our vision for a green capital city in everything you do, both in your personal life, and at work. However, if you want to do more, you can:

 

Endorsed projects – these are projects that we don’t run ourselves, but that we believe will make a positive contribution to our vision for the city. By endorsing the project, we hope that it will gain additional publicity and and support through either financial donations or offers of time and expertise. You can find a list of our endorsed projects here (add link) . Or if you would like to apply to become and endorsed project- the application form is here .

Green Capital Projects – these are activities that we are undertaking directly:

  1. Land Use & Planning
  2. Crow’s Nest
  3. Self-build sub-group
  4. Transport sub-group
  5. Prepare 4 Change
  6. UK Festival of Sustainability – Big Green Week 2012
Community Challenge Fund – we have a small amount of money given to us by Bristol City Council to fund community based innovative projects that support the Green Capital vision. The closing date for the last round was 31st August 2011 and the guidance can be found here . Details of future rounds will be published on this web site.
