NPC are delighted to share that the 2026 schedule for Everyone’s Environment: Local is now confirmed — along with the sign‑up forms for your organisation.
About the Programme
The programme is split into two strands, designed to support community‑based organisations across Greater Manchester to build confidence, deepen understanding, and take meaningful action on that matters to the communities they serve but also benefits climate and environmental.
1. Co‑Creating Climate Futures (3 sessions)
These workshops bring organisations together to:
- Build confidence and capacity to integrate environmental issues into their work
- Ensure lived experience shapes local climate and nature decision‑making
- Support organisations to develop collective action that continues beyond the programme
We will also be hosting Community Conversations and Collaborative Action Sessions later in the year to strengthen this work.
2. Environmental Training (3 sessions)
These sessions provide a foundational understanding of:
- How changes in climate and nature are affecting the communities you serve
- How local voices can influence the future of climate action

There’s no expectation that every organisation attends every session, join the sessions most relevant to you.
Each event has a limited capacity, and places will be allocated based on suitability for the programme and the order in which sign‑ups are received.
Compensation and Expenses. We recognise that small and grassroots organisations often have limited resources or capacity to take on additional commitments. To ensure this is not a barrier to participation, we fully reimburse organisations and individuals for their time and reasonable expenses so that no one is out of pocket for getting involved. Reasonable expenses, such as travel, childcare, or other essential costs, can be covered in addition to the above payments.
If you have any questions or would like further clarification, please don’t hesitate to get in touch by emailing everyonesenvironmentcontact@thinknpc.org or see our website for further details.
