Making 2026 local elections count: building support for fair climate action

Overview

Join this webinar to hear how we can use local elections to rebuild political support for fair climate action.

The elections in May across England and Wales are a crucial moment in the fight for climate justice. With many prominent politicians distancing themselves from taking action on the climate, there has never been a more important time to pile on the pressure to make sure councils don’t row back on their commitments.

We'll explain why local elections matter, where they'll take place and how they present an opportunity to engage your community about the issues they care about such as warm homes, public transport, access to nature, local jobs and more.

This webinar will help you and your local group get ready for the elections — sharing tactics, resources and guide you through the practical steps to build support in your community and influence candidates to make sure the issues that matter most to people locally aren’t ignored.

Join us to find out how your group can make a real difference and ensure climate justice is high up the agenda at these important elections
