Do you have a resource to share?

NESCAN aims to map and share available resources for individuals and communities who wish to create or expand a community climate change group, run a climate change project or reduce their own carbon footprint.

To do this we would be grateful if you could send us information on or website links to good quality resources which cover any of the subjects noted within the form to the right.

These resources can include 'how to' manuals, online resources, webinars, videos or toolkits, links to organisations which provide resources or advice.

Your submission will be added to our publicly available database on our website www.nescan.org.uk to share and promote these resources across the North East of Scotland. It will also allow the NESCAN Hub to support the development of existing projects and groups.

The survey will take approximately 5 minutes to complete and has no closing date. If you have any questions or technical issues while completing this survey, please contact Communications via communications@nescan.org

This information is extremely valuable to us and we appreciate you taking the time to share your knowledge with us.
