Chinnor and Thame Friends of the Earth

Chinnor and Thame Friends of the Earth is a long-established group campaigning for change at a local, national and global level to make a positive difference to the environment.

They worked with Chinnor Parish Council to develop an Environmental Policy in response to the climate emergency, producing an infographic to explain the policy to the village. They also partner with other local community groups – supporting the Chinnor Community Orchard with Greening Chinnor, joining the Solar Streets initiative with Thame Green Living, and running a plastics reduction campaign with Plastic Free Chinnor.

Past projects have included working with local landowners to develop a cycle link from Chinnor to the Phoenix Trail, presenting a strategy at COP26 with Oxford Friends of the Earth, providing input on sustainable measures in new housing developments, and campaigning to reduce waste and consumption.
