How can you get involved?

If you think you might be interested and would like to know more about Transition Evesham Vale then please come along to one of our meetings. You can tell us about your interests. You do not have to have any qualifications just enthusiasm, but if you do have any special skills and experience that you think might be of use to the TEV, then please let us know.

We are currently in the process of collating information on a wide variety of topics. An insight to what some of these are can be found on our Interest Groups page. A good start would be to explore this website, with its data base and links. There are recommended books to read and films to watch that should put you in the picture about the Transition Movement.

From then on it is up to us, but we feel that the more people we can get involved, the greater is our chance of success to create a better future for us all.
