We had a wonderful time this year with our focus on rivers, including the Rivers Assembly back in Spring. As we shift our focus towards our upcoming 2024 Assembly on Education and Young People, we wanted to give you a quick update on what has come out of our rivers work and where there are opportunities going forward.

Dittisham Parish Council Working Group
We have declared a climate & environmental emergency, we voted that we would consider the climate & environment in every decision and action, we have embedded that within our formal process and hire agreements, etc, we created an ongoing phased Habitat Plan to improve biodiversity on land we own or manage, and we are working on a wider Climate & Environment Plan.

Devon Energy Collective
Our aim is to take action to address the climate emergency and to deliver the Devon Carbon Plan by creating a Devon that runs entirely on green energy. We believe that, rather than buying power from outside the country, we can produce clean, locally owned energy here in Devon. This will significantly boost our local economy, retaining approximately £1.76 billion in our county and creating a local industry and jobs across the region.
