Carbon Literacy Training for Community Leaders

Community leaders in Horsham District are invited to participate in a new Carbon Literacy training course being delivered by Horsham District Council.

The carbon literacy course is an accredited course that helps us understand the causes and impacts of climate change, the role that local authorities and community groups have in influencing action on climate change, and the wider benefits that can come from the transition to a low carbon economy, including improved health, cleaner air, better access to green spaces and greater resilience to extreme weather.

This one-day course will help you understand why climate change is occurring, provide you with the knowledge and skills to take action against climate change, and give you the opportunity to be certified as Carbon Literate. Come along, wherever you are on your sustainability journey, to learn and connect with other community leaders on this important topic.

There will be some short pre- and post- course work to gain the Carbon Literate certification. A light lunch is provided to all attendees during the day.

While the course is free, there will be a £10 deposit taken at booking, and returned to you upon successful completion of the course.

If you cannot attend this session, but are interested in a future course, or have any questions, please get in touch with us at climatechangeaction@horsham.gov.uk.
