National Lottery Funding will support local charity Action West London to bring climate action to its Acton Market!
£157,484 in National Lottery funding has been given to Ealing Borough to support local people and communities tackle the climate emergency!
The funding from The National Lottery Community Fund, the largest funder of community activity in the UK, will support local charity Action West London to bring climate action to its Acton Market with activities, workshops and events.
The two-year project will bring people from across Ealing and beyond together to learn about how to Recycle, Reuse, Repair and help get residents involved in practical Climate Action events and workshops, such as Ealing Repair Café’s activities and the monthly BikeWorks stall that helps people fix and upcycle their bicycles.
By using Acton Market as a public focus point, Action West London – which has been supporting local employment for over 23 years and recently won a national award for their work bringing people across the community together – will work in partnership with Ealing Council, local community organisations and businesses to reduce the area’s environmental footprint.
Climate change is an issue that faces us all, and we all have our duty to do something to help us reach net zero.
