We’re dedicating this page to Climate Change. Here at Links CVS we believe that by tackling climate change we can help improve the standard of living for everyone in our community. By supporting change, we can all help benefit our areas by providing:

  • Cleaner air and improved health (the rise of pollutants in cities and towns has been linked to poor health).
  • Better access to green spaces, providing pockets of peace and play-space to improve mental health as well as letting our wildlife thrive.
  • Better public transport provisions - reducing air pollution and keeping us safe and connected.
  • More safe and accessible cycle and walking routes, limiting our dependance on public transport
  • Eco-heating provisions so we can end fuel poverty and poorly insulated homes.
