Our Workshops: Helping Councils Build Thriving Communities

How Our Workshops Support Councils

Councils like yours help shape sustainable and resilient communities, but we know that connecting residents with knowledge and skills that create lasting change can be challenging.

We can help.

Covering a broad range of sustainability, waste and community topics, our sessions are a practical, actionable solution and tailored to local needs.

How We Empower Your Residents

Our in-person and online workshops, equip residents. We do this in four ways:

1. Expert knowledge to help understand context of issues first.
2. Examples, case studies and stories to help apply the knowledge and provide meaning.
3. Solutions sharing, so residents know what they can do with the information
4. A clear call to action they can follow.

Our Circular Economy workshops help communities rethink waste, offering guidance on enhancing recycling systems, making more sustainable purchasing decisions, and discovering innovative ways to manage resources.

Food Waste Avoidance sessions demonstrate easy household actions—like smart shopping, effective food storage, and creative cooking techniques—that reduce waste and save money. Attendees leave with practical strategies that support environmental sustainability and deliver long-term financial savings.

For councils looking to support Safe Climate efforts, we offer workshops on reducing energy use, and understanding the impacts of climate change.

Our Resilient Communities workshops also provide guidance on strengthening social connections, improving neighbourhood networks, and fostering inclusive participation.

Additionally, Community Capacity Building workshops equip organisations with the skills to advocate for change, engage volunteers, and communicate sustainability messages effectively. Attendees gain practical tools that enhance both community resilience and organisational impact.
