Welcome to CAPS!
We are the Climate Awareness Partnership Sidmouth
We are all about raising our awareness of the climate – and our collective action to address it
Founded in 2022, we are a partnership of Sidmouth Town Council and other local organisations – including the Sidmouth Churches, the Sidmouth Plastic Warriors , the Sidmouth Science Festival , Sidmouth schools and the Vision Group for Sidmouth
We are open to anyone living or visiting or interested in the Sid Valley community
Our aims include organising events, publicising support on reducing our carbon footprint, looking for opportunities to live more sustainably and celebrating success through the media.
