WHAT WE DO

Transition Edinburgh South (TES) works with local people and community organisations to regenerate greenspaces and community buildings

WE DO THIS IN A NUMBER OF WAYS:

Running community health, learning, food growing and volunteering programmes and events that reduce social isolation, mental ill health and poverty, improve health and community connections, increase bio-diversity and reduce carbon pollution

Increasing opportunities for volunteering and supporting local grassroots projects

Working with local residents and community organisations to develop the buildings and greenspaces where we are based and in surrounding communities

Working to improve the environments where we are based, by tackling the impacts of climate change, reducing carbon pollution, increasing bio-diversity, and promoting sustainable development and regenerative horticulture

We are based at the Gracemount Community Garden and have been developing it since 2013. 

 

We work with the Friends of the Mansion to develop the buildings and greenspaces surrounding the garden, as well with a range of statutory and voluntary agencies to support local community greenspace projects across South Edinburgh. 

 

We have built up strong connections with local schools, community organisations and health and social care services. 

 

We are part of the Transition Movement which “is a movement of communities coming together to reimagine and rebuild our world”.
