We’re a group of local volunteers with a common aim – to help the community come together, revive the local economy and share sustainable skills for a greener, fairer future. There are many Transition Towns across the world and throughout the UK, with several others in London, such as Transition Town Peckham and Transition Town Brixton.
Our mission is to mobilise and inspire local action to build a healthy community and environment
It’s about the community taking back some control, some pride, and having fun at the same time!

The Future – help shape it
As well as showing films and running workshops for the local community, there are a number of exciting projects we could potentially get off the ground, including:
- setting up new community food growing spaces
- planting edible mini orchards
- setting up an energy buying co-op
- building a wind turbine
- setting up a pop-up shop in a disused space
