Community Climate Conference

Community Climate Conference 2026: Practical climate action in York and North Yorkshire is a one-day conference in York bringing together community climate groups, change makers, village halls, politicians, community anchor organisations, VCSE organisations and others from across York and North Yorkshire.

The event will explore how communities can take practical climate action that supports a more sustainable future. It will feature keynote speakers sharing regional and national perspectives, alongside engaging breakout sessions celebrating local action and success stories from across York and North Yorkshire.

There will also be a marketplace session, giving attendees the chance to meet and learn from groups already taking climate action in their communities.

Attendees will leave feeling inspired by real stories of success and empowered to bring practical climate action into their own communities. The conference is also a valuable opportunity to connect people, groups and organisations working towards a shared sustainable future, strengthening the growing network of community climate action across York and North Yorkshire.

This event is brought to you by North Yorkshire Climate Coalition, York Friends of Earth and Village Green (a project supported by Community First Yorkshire and funded by the National Lottery).
