What we're doing

Our REACH Service

REACH is our new service supporting residents and communities to make your homes warmer, more energy-efficient, and cheaper to run.

We provide independent, trusted advice that's tailored to you.

We can also let you know about funding that you may be eligible for, and provide you with referrals to onward services.

Climate Action Plan

In 2019, we declared a climate emergency and committed to taking action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help Suffolk achieve its ambition of becoming carbon neutral by 2030.

We want to play a leading role in tackling climate change, protecting and improving our natural and historic environments, and creating a positive legacy for future generations.

Our Climate Action Plan sets out how we will work towards these aims. It brings together the priorities and actions we will take across areas such as energy, buildings, transport, nature, communities and climate resilience.

The plan explains what we are doing, how we will work with residents, businesses and partners, and how we will monitor progress over time.

Biodiversity Action Plan

Our new Biodiversity Action Plan focusses on how biodiversity is integrated in all we do.

We are doing this through these six areas:

  1. Engage – provide greater opportunity for people to connect with the natural environment
  2. Educate – help people to understand what can be done and why it is important
  3. Expand – create bigger and more habitats
  4. Enhance – manage what we have better
  5. Embed – make biodiversity a routine part of what we do
  6. Endure – ensure that what we do provides lasting impact
