Clean Air Day Event
The Trust participated at the Clean Air Day Event in the Town Hall on 18th June 2026, run by Climate Action Durham.
Climate Action Durham reported that more than 100 people joined in the activities, 12 community groups presented stalls, and 10 large local organisations joined the round table discussion. The community groups were asked to suggest pledges and the attendees chose the pledges they were willing to try. The Trust’s suggested pledge “I will lobby my local councillor and MP to implement sustainable transport” received the most choices.
A report of the day is available online.
The report lists calls for action. One action that the Trust takes is that we respond to new housing developments to encourage and enable the greater use of active travel and public transport.
