Be a Part of Transition St Andrews

We run over 150 events per year covering smarter travel, zero waste, local food and the sharing of knowledge and skills. Being a part of our local climate action is made easy with three simple steps:

1. Pick a project you like

We run 6 main projects but you can also get involved with our steering group or internship positions too!

2. Contact the team

We are a team of 8 but our community stretches out far beyond us, a lot of what we do is just run by volunteers.

3. Come along to an event

From weekly garden sessions, on-going skill share events to a weekend long permaculture festival, we’ve got something for just about everyone.
