Protect Our Winters UK

Protect Our Winters UK Our mission is to rally the outdoor community to lead meaningful climate action

https://protectourwinters.uk So, come along for the ride - it should be fun.

Check out our "So what is POW UK all about?" photo album for a little more information on who we are, why we're doing it and what we want to achieve. We believe that as a species we really need to get a wriggle on when it comes to taking action on climate change. And while there are a lot of good things happening, more needs to happen and more quickly. We want to help people take effective action - but we want to do it in a way that is fun, easy, inclusive and rewarding.

Itโ€™s Better Transport Week, and we canโ€™t think of a better time for our new report, Clean Miles: Low carbon transport to the outdoors for all, to drop! ๐Ÿš†๐Ÿ”๏ธ

How do we travel to the places we love without damaging them?

Weโ€™re constantly told to make better individual choices, but the infrastructure simply isn't there to support us.

Weโ€™ve unpacked the evidence and are demanding actionable, systemic change. We need public transport that is affordable, well-connected, and has clear, fair baggage policies for outdoor equipment.

Sick of climate doom-scrolling and feeling like you don't have a voice in the room? Enter: POW UK Changemakers. ๐ŸŒโšก๏ธ

What better time than Great Big Green Week to launch a brand new programme built specifically for you.

Your voice matters. Climate action needs every voice, but the tools aren't always accessible. To change that, we are fully funding 50 spots on our Changemakers programme for 18 to 29-year-olds who have faced barriers to climate education.

This isn't just about talking; it's about giving you the communication chops and practical skills to shake up the status quo.

Get your official Carbon Literacy accreditation, build your CV, and start making a tangible impact in your community and workplace.

Ready to flip that climate anxiety into action? You deserve a seat at the table.
