How do I make a difference?

We've created a toolkit that anyone can pick up and start follow if they, and the people around them, want to start a campaign on climate change!

And we called it Act by Right - because it's our right to act, and we must act to create the future we want.

The toolkit takes you through a five stage journey:

  1. Getting to know each other and representing others
  2. Getting to know the community
  3. Getting ready for action
  4. Campaigning for Change
  5. Finding out what's changed

Each unit has three aims and each aim has three activities. It takes about three hours to complete each aim. With the hour review of learning at the end of each unit, you therefore need ten hours for each unit.

It has 60 (50 hours of activities and 10 hours of reflection) hours worth of activities from which you can chose to follow them all, or dip in and out depending on what’s going to work best for you. It's even accredited by ASDAN so if you complete all the activities and keep a log of them all, you'll pick up a qualification too.

Climate change is our generational issue - we're the one's that are still going to be alive in 2050! We wanted to make sure everyone could get involved to make the future a positive one and so we came up with Act by Right - Let's change the climate.

Get cracking!

Just before you jump into Fairtrade food, wind turbines, recycling centres or better & cheaper public transport, you might want to quickly check out how Act by Right - Let's change the climate works so that you get the most out of it.

It won't take long and is definitely worth the read.
