In August 2021 we launched our Climate Response Communications and Engagement Strategy. This strategy aims to ensure that everyone who lives, works, studies or visits Medway understands our journey to net zero carbon and is equipped with the knowledge, tools and support required to make their contribution to it.
We also aim to support the community to take ownership and corporate or individual action to help us reach our target.
To inspire, promote, and enable action and collaboration towards reducing emissions in Medway, we will continue to launch campaigns and events, and update our social media and newsletter frequently on what's going on in Medway.
National and international events
We'll update our list of upcoming national and international events and campaigns soon.
Competitions
We are raising awareness of the impact drivers have on air quality and people’s health when they do not switch off their car engines when their car is stationary.
As part of this, we are inviting all schools across Medway to take part in a competition to encourage drivers to switch off their engines when they are not moving outside the school.
Find out more about the schools anti-idling competition.
