There are groups campaigning on climate change and related issues around the country - some are listed below, but we know the list is not exhaustive. If you've got information about local campaigning that you'd like us to share, get in touch - info@campaigncc.org. You might also want to check the Friends of the EarthGreenpeace, Fossil Free UK, Frack Off and Global Justice Now websites for details of other local groups.

If you are thinking of setting up a new group to campaign on climate change, and you'd like some help, get in touch. You may find our resources page useful.
