Come along to a community discussion about East Ayrshire’s climate action hub.
This event is an opportunity to hear more about the hub, share your thoughts and find out how you can be involved.
Please feel free to send this invitation to any person or group that you think would be interested. All are welcome!
What is a Community Climate Action Hub?
A national network of climate action hubs is being set up across Scotland to support communities to take forward climate action in their areas. As well as helping to co-ordinate and build on existing activity, hubs will work together to learn from each other and share good practice.
Hubs will help to build on and co-ordinate climate action in their area, by:
- building awareness of the climate emergency and actions local groups can take
- developing local plans
- helping groups identify funding opportunities
- facilitating networking between groups
- ensuring a joined-up approach is taken to tackling climate change at a regional level
- build awareness of the climate emergency and actions local groups can take
Scottish Communities Climate Action Network Coordinators are working with communities to understand the needs of their area, and support groups with the application process.
If you have any questions or can’t attend an information event but would like to feed in your thoughts and contributions please get in contact with Lisa Busby, Ayrshire Climate Action Network Coordinator, at [email protected].

Event Information
This event is your opportunity to have your say on Fife’s first Local Heat & Energy Efficiency Strategy (LHEES).
Through facilitated discussion attendees will share their feedback on the strategy. Feedback will be used to write a response to the consultation on behalf of Fife Communities Climate Action Network.
We will also make the response available for download on the FCCAN website so others can add to it and submit their own response.
By taking part in this event you will be helping the Council meet its 2045 Net Zero target, and help Fife be climate friendly, climate ready, and climate just by 2045.
The Strategy
The Local Heat & Energy Efficiency Strategy and accompanying 5-year delivery plan detail Fife Council’s approach to improve the energy efficiency and decarbonise heat sources of Fife buildings in a climate friendly, ready, and just manner.
Improving Fife’s buildings is a core part of the energy transition to Net Zero by 2045 and tackling the climate emergency. To achieve this means all building owners in Fife will need to do their part to cut building emissions and improve sustainability. The LHEES strategy details how the Fife Council area will approach this challenge.
Fife Council is seeking your feedback on:
• the vision of this strategy,
• their identified priorities,
• the scope of the high-level delivery plan, and
• any further actions we should include when developing our detailed delivery plan.
Take Part
The event is taking place online. A Zoom link will be included in the order confirmation and via email the day before the event.
To get the most from this event and to be able to effectively provide feedback, participants should read the Local Heat and Energy Efficiency Strategy beforehand and consider the consultation questions.

Event Details
What is this session about?
In this short session delivered by Surefoot Effect, we start with the question: What are your hopes, and your fears, for the next 5-15 years? There will be time to reflect on and then share and discuss these, before moving onto other activities and an introduction to tools for building both individual and community resilience.
Who is the event for? What will I get from attending?
This session is for people who would like their communities to explore and plan for the future, identifying projects and actions to be taken to build a sustainable future. It is an introduction to the topic for you to see if it might be useful for your community organisation to do a full programme later as a group but you will also immediately learn some useful approaches to take back with you.
Previous groups who have explored this topic, have gone on to do varied projects for their communities: growing and distributing vegetables and recipes to use them, along with cooking classes; turning front gardens into biodiversity friendly places; and setting up an inclusive community learning programme to enable everyone to work better together to move into a sustainable future.
Structure and timing of the session
This two hour online session has a short comfort break in the middle and will involve activities in small groups and in plenary. Please bring pen and paper and your curiosity.
Who is delivering the session?
The session facilitator, Pam Candea, from The Surefoot Effect CIC, has been working to promote a sustainable and resilient society actively since returning to that cherished ambition after a career in the commercial world in 2007. She works with community, public sector, and commercial organisations to help tackle the impacts of the nature and climate emergencies.
Please note spaces are limited so booking is required.

Event Details
Would you like to join a monthly sociable book group? Would you be interested in reading environmental and climate topics, and participating in a research project?
- Monday 16th October: ‘Weather’ by Jenny Offill!
- Monday 20th November: ‘The Opposite of a Person’ by Lieke Marsman!
- Monday 11th December: ‘The Quarry Wood’ by Nan Shepherd
Please read the book before attending the session so that you can contribute to the discussion. You are welcome to source your own copy or the books are available from Inverness Public Library, Farraline Park, Inverness. Email: [email protected] or Phone: 01349 781370.
The book group is part of PhD student Ingrid Brubaker’s research and is a collaboration between Velocity Café & Bicycle Workshop, UHI Inverness and High Life Highland Libraries. When you sign up for the reading group, you will be provided with the relevant forms and questionnaires.
A hot drink of your choice will be provided between 6.30-7pm.
Ingrid is interested in exploring whether reading groups might help engage people in environmental action or change their perception of the natural world. Climate fiction or ‘Cli-Fi’ is a new book genre which deals with environmental issues and climate change and often encourages the reader to consider our planet’s future and our relationship with nature.
You can join one or all of the book group sessions but please sign up on eventbrite each time. There are limited spaces for the session so please only book if you are able to attend. This event is supported by funding provided by the Highland Community Waste Partnership.
Photography: We will also take photographs during the session for sharing on social media and reporting purposes. By signing up, you are giving consent to having your photo taken. If you are not comfortable having your photograph taken, please let us know.
Attendance & cancellation policy: Please only book a ticket if you know you are able to attend. If your plans change, you must cancel your ticket and let us know with at least 48 hours notice of the event start time so that others can attend.
