Climate Action North East is run by Sharon Lashley, Anna-Lisa Mills and Jennifer Clair Robson. We decided to pool our knowledge and experience to ignite action on climate change-related issues in the North East of England.
We’ve worked independently on a wide variety of climate change issues over the past 10 years for a many organisations. Now we work together to deliver practical support and advice for businesses and communities. This includes many activities from working with businesses to help them reduce their impact on the environment while minimising their risks to the changing climate to organising litter picking sessions with community groups.
By combining our knowledge, skills and networks we know that we can make a positive difference!
Each of us brings a different skill set to Climate Action North East.
