Our strategy

Draft Climate Change Strategy Consultation

From November 2023 to January 2024 we consulted on our Draft Climate Change Strategy for Melton borough. The consultation has now closed. 

As part of the consultation we wanted to hear your views on the document which sets out how local people can come together to tackle climate change and protect Melton borough for future generations. The feedback from the 2022 consultation as detailed below helped to shape the draft strategy.

We are now going through the responses received and will publish a schedule of responses shortly, following this we will amend the Draft strategy in line with comments received. 

You can find the information on the consultation and the Draft Climate Change Strategy by visiting our consultation webpage. The draft Climate Change Strategy can be downloaded at the bottom of that page. 

Climate Change Consultation 2022

In Spring 2022, we launched our consultation and engagement on Climate Change with the aim of gaining a greater understanding the communities and stakeholders views on climate change and how they want us to work with them in the future. This involved an online survey, consultation events with young people, a market stall in Melton Mowbray and connecting with various stakeholders across the Borough. We were keen to get a variation of views to better understand how we should tackle the issues.

The consultation has now closed, and you can view the consultation results online.

We have continued to engage with various community groups since the consultation ended by attending events, providing advice and support and creating networks for people to connect with one another on the issues and topics associated with climate change. Our intention is to continue this engagement to enable greater collaboration with all stakeholders and bolster involvement in the climate change agenda
