Green Horsham

Jeremy Quin

I am regularly contacted by constituents concerned about the future of our planet and our environment. I am proud of the work the Government is doing to commit us to net zero, leading the world in combatting climate change and I always appreciate constituents taking the time to contact me on these issues.

I am equally delighted by the immense efforts being taken locally to tackle climate change. Some of our the fantastic initiatives include:

  • Greener Living Network: Sussex Green Living who run the Sussex Hub on the last Saturday of every month 10-4pm at the United Reform Church. Included in the hub is the popular Repair Café and refill station for personal and household cleaning products.
  • Horsham Community Fridge who help to stop food waste. More information about their sessions can be found on their Facebook page: Horsham Community Fridge - Home | Facebook
  • BilliGreen who run Billingshurst’s network for nature and the environment which includes a plastic recycling point and organising village litter picks. More information about the group can be found on their Facebook page: BilliGreen | Facebook
  • The Crawley Down and Turners Hill Repair café meets on the 4th Saturday of the month and offers minor repairs. More information can be found here: Crawley Down Village (2022) | The Crawley Down & Turners Hill Repair Café
  • Repower Balcombe create clean community energy. More information can be found here: Home - REPOWER Balcombe

I am always interested in meeting local groups tackling climate change to hear what they are doing locally and how they think the Government can help.
