About the Organisations

• Transition Dundee

  

  Transition Dundee is a community-led social enterprise which aims to make Dundee a more sustainable, healthier and happier place to live through various climate focussed projects.

  Many people are aware of the threats that climate change poses - but we are here to show there is hope, there are lots of things we can do to tackle it together and to make sure nobody is left behind in the transition to a more sustainable future.

  As well as the newest project, The Wardrobe, Transition Dundee also run a very successful Community Fridge in the West End of Dundee and a branch of NeighbourFood – a weekly, online local food market, as well as running a busy programme of events and workshops on all things climate change.
