How you can help
Lots of words have been written (and said) about Sustainability and Sustainable Development - but what do you have to do to be able to feel you are making a difference and helping make the way you live more sustainable?
The answer is "something" - it is not a question of scale or of changing every aspect of your life over night - it is simply a matter of making changes in the way we live that help contribute to a more sustainable future for all.
Those changes can be large or small, simple or complex, costly
or inexpensive (even free in some cases). It isn't about being better
than others or feeling
guilty about things you enjoy.
It is about feeling good about yourself, your
family or lifestyle, the environment and the future.
The Sustainable Development Fund could help you make the changes and improvements you want to make!
Start with the thought you want to help conserve and enhance the environment, read the information on this website and look at other websites linked from these pages, develop your idea, talk to the AONB Staff, talk to friends, colleagues, your school, club or society - working as a group gives a lot of strength to your idea and helps unlock funding from many sources.
The AONB Staff can help you develop your idea and put you in touch with all sorts of other groups, help identify alternative funders or point you in the direction of information resources.
This website is full of ideas and suggestions for living in a more sustainable way - Get ready to make a difference!
