A new project to help people save money while helping to tackle climate change in the Granton community is to launch this month. Granton Goes Greener will be officially launched by local MP Deirdre Brock on Saturday 30 June, between 12 noon and 3pm at Granton Parish Church.
Everyone is invited to the launch of Granton Goes Greener to find out about steps they can take in their everyday lives to help combat climate change while saving money!
The Granton Goes Greener Launch will include a clothing swap shop, a guided walk of the local area, cycle maintenance sessions and entertainment including poetry and children’s stories and crafts. Refreshments will include home-made soup and bread and cakes donated by Baynes Bakery.
Granton Goes Greener, based at Granton Parish Church aims to help people cut down on food waste, reuse clothes and improve their cycling skills as well as supplying information on every-day actions they can take to tackle climate change. The project also includes work to make the church building more energy efficient.
Granton Parish Church’s Granton Goes Greener Project is supported by a grant of £88,734 from the Scottish Government’s Climate Challenge Fund and includes a maximum contribution of £29, 912 from the European Regional Development Fund.
