About °Climate East Midlands

Climate East Midlands brings together a range of organisations that have responsibilities for tackling different aspects of climate change.  Acting collectively means that a more coordinated and coherent approach can be developed, which also adds value to each of our partners' own work. More importantly, it provides a single public face for climate change action in this part of the country and a better service to the users and customers of climate related services.

Our main business is now conducted by a Management Group, which is currently chaired by Alison Parry, Head of Environment at Northamptonshire County Council. Our work is overseen by an Executive Panel of directors currently chaired (on rotation) by Jane Todd, Chief Executive of Nottingham City Council. This reflects the rise in the importance of local government action in tackling the causes and consequences of climate change at the local level in the context of localism introduced by the Coalition Government.
