Welcome to the Transition Maidenhead website.
We are a group of people from the Maidenhead area who are working together, imagining and creating a future that addresses the twin challenges of diminishing oil and gas supplies and climate change, and creates the kind of community that we would all want to be part of.
We believe that only by involving all of us – residents, businesses, public bodies, community organisations and schools – will we come up with the most innovative, effective and practical ideas, and have the energy and skills to carry them out. Our future has the potential to be more rewarding, abundant and enjoyable than today, and by working together we can unleash the collective enthusiasm and genius of our community (that means you!) to make this transition.
With this in mind, our mission is two-fold:
- To explore and then follow pathways of practical actions that will reduce our carbon
emissions and dependence on fossil fuels. - To build the areas resilience, that is, its ability to withstand shocks from the outside, through being more self reliant in areas such as food, energy, health care, jobs and economics
- Get involved, join one of the groups and come to an event.
