Transition Long Ashton


Visit Long Ashton Transition Village
Transition Long Ashton is about the village working together to meet the challenges of climate change and the end of cheap oil. We know we have to drastically reduce our carbon footprint and energy use, and at this point these are massive problems.

Fossil fuels are limited resources, but human ingenuity and co-operation are not limited, and we can use them to develop local solutions. By working to reduce our dependency on fossil fuels and centralised distribution systems, we can simultaneously build a strong and vibrant village community and begin to live much more sustainably.

What’s your vision for a more sustainable Long Ashton? It will take time and effort but can you imagine.......

A car-share club? Community orchard? Greener homes? Sharing skills? Solar panels on the village hall? A wind turbine? Swapping seeds and vegetables? A farmers market? Recycling as a community? Schools growing their lunches? A strong connected community where we all know our neighbours? Bringing back old skills and ways to make life adaptable to the challenges we face? Working to support what people in the village are already doing ...

Watch out for our programme of events, including film showings, talks, and much more as we develop.

Come along to our monthly meetings, and/or join one of the groups addressing particular areas: food, energy, transport, education.
