Green Community Connectors
Green Community Connectors are individuals in the community who have completed a free 1 hour workshop about the link between climate and health. The workshops are open to all, offering participants the opportunity to better understand the link between climate and health.
In the workshops we discuss and explore how we can take positive steps to make a difference to our planet and our wellbeing, as individuals and as a community. The workshops also help people to feel more confident talking about climate and health, and building local knowledge about all the available support in Frome.
The workshops are held monthly and free to anyone living in the Frome area, with over 220 people having taken part so far.
Find out more in this short video, and hear from previous participants about their experience of becoming a Green Community Connector through the workshops.
