Scottish Borders Climate Action Network (SBCAN) is the Climate Action Hub for the Borders, part of a national network of Hubs funded by the Scottish Government.

Our role is to support community-led climate action across the Scottish Borders. We are working to catalyse grassroots action around 6 key themes: Active Travel, Circular Economy, Energy, Food, Health & Wellbeing and Youth.

We do this by:

• Building awareness of the climate emergency and actions local groups and communities can take to mitigate and adapt to climate change
• Helping groups identify funding opportunities
• Signposting to organisations & agencies who can offer support
• Offer targeted ‘seed’ funding to support Community Climate Action
• Supporting communities to design and implement climate action projects
• Facilitating learning, networking and capacity-building
• Supporting a more joined-up approach to tackling climate change at a regional level
• Creating opportunities for partnership working and collaboration
