Who are we?
We are local residents who are keen to work with Wiltshire, Town and Parish Councils in the Marlborough Area, plus other interested organisations and businesses to protect the Marlborough Area Community from the rising costs of food, energy and transport and to address issues of waste. We also seek to enhance and promote the local economy. Transition is based on the Permaculture principles of Earth Care, People Care and Fair Shares. We grew out of, and have merged with, Marlborough Climate Pledge.
We intend to do this by promoting community driven projects in food sovereignty, renewable energy, sustainable transport and recycling in its broadest sense. We also teach 'Re-skilling' courses and participate in St. John's annual Science Fair.
Whilst we have been going for a few years we are still developing ideas and projects about transforming the Marlborough Area into a 'transition community'.
