Although Havering has plenty of green space, there's always the risk of encroachment by developers, and there are places where air pollution is too high. We aim to increase public awareness of the value of our green spaces, and we monitor development plans so we can campaign against destruction of the green belt. We have regular meetings with the Council and often feature in local press and media. We've produced leaflets on several issues that we distribute when we hold stalls in the area.

West Dorset Friends of the Earth works with other environmental groups, acting as a campaigning core with the backup of national campaigners and researchers. This role has enabled us to gain considerable impact in our community.

Our group covers the Torfaen County Borough Council area. We promote self-help ideas to enable individuals and communities to safeguard their environment. We actively network with other local groups to build a better Torfaen. We support local residents to respond to planning applications where environmental implications are of concern.

Eastbourne and District Friends of the Earth is an environmental campaign group. We take action on a range of local, national, and international issues including climate change, fossil fuel extraction, renewable energy, sustainable transport, biodiversity, and waste. We collaborate with local councils and other community groups to effect real change for the better in our local environment. We also have a lot of fun too, especially with our stalls at the local festivals that Eastbourne - a tourist resort - is renowned for!

We’re a diverse, enthusiastic team, and welcome anyone who’d like to join our group and put positive energy into campaigning for a better world. The group has run continuously since 1981 with many successful campaigns behind us, for example doorstep paper recycling using a milk float - well before the government dreamt of such a thing! The most pressing issue in 2019 is the climate emergency but we also campaign on other issues, listed below.
