Taking on the UK’s biggest climate challenges is about more than lowering emissions or. Upgrading our draughty homes fights fuel poverty and creates new jobs, while nurturing parks and forests protects us from extreme weather, and helps people stay fit and healthy. And by making sure climate action is inclusive, it unites communities and fights inequality.
That’s why we work with councils and communities right across the country: They are experts in their place, and so are well equipped to develop equitable, pragmatic, and targeted climate solutions which work for them.
But many of these people are struggling to access the support, knowledge, funding and connections they need to go faster. That’s where Ashden’s networks, insights, awards and consultancy come in.
We work with partners to charge up the best climate innovation, and make sure its benefits are reaching the most marginalised groups and communities – those at greatest risk from the climate crisis. Please join us to make that fairer, better future a reality.

We need a nationwide skills revolution to create green jobs and low-carbon economies. See how we're calling for urgent local and national government action.
Ashden consultancy is rooted in our deep knowledge of tried and tested climate solutions, and the challenges and opportunities faced by local authorities.
Particular areas of focus include the skills and jobs driving climate action, retrofit to create energy efficient homes, and community engagement and inclusion. In these and other areas, we understand the hallmarks of trailblazing, effective and inclusive climate solutions. We also analyse the policy and finance that levers can unlock change at a local, regional and national level.
Authorities and city-regions shouldn’t face this challenge alone. We know that strong networks are essential for turning bold plans into real-world change. That’s why we’ve created a host of programmes and projects linking councils, climate innovators and local communities. With demand for ‘shovel-ready’ sustainability projects greater than ever, our networks connect policymakers and funders with inspiring examples of proven success, boosting knowledge-sharing and collaboration.
