Transition Together funding blow

From the latest Transition Together newsletter

This is not the news we wanted to share - our funding application to build on the work of Transition Together has not been successful. In light of the disappointing news, Transition Together has issued this statement, outlining the current situation and the formation of two circles to explore options for alternative, reduced funding and maximising the impact of the remaining time left with the current grant to support Transition groups. 

The statement also sets out how we’ll hold space for Transitioners to shape the way ahead, including by joining this Vive Space, where we’ll continue the dialogue:

“We are disappointed by a funding landscape that struggles to support long-term, grassroots, transformative change needed in response to the huge challenges our world is facing… We believe the full potential of communities to reimagine and rebuild their places together is badly needed.  Whatever happens to Transition Together, this work goes on.  We are committed to working together with Transitioners in the months ahead to unlock the most impactful way to do that.”
