Creating a Greener, Healthier Lancashire.
Moving more. Protecting our planet.
How we move affects our environment, and our environment affects where, when and how we can be active. From the quality of the air we breathe to the availability of safe green and blue spaces, a healthy environment is essential for healthy, active communities.
We want to help create places across Lancashire where being active is easier, more sustainable and accessible to everyone.
That means championing walking, wheeling and cycling, supporting access to nature, promoting active design and helping communities and organisations respond to the challenges of climate change.
Why It Matters
We know that climate change is already affecting people’s ability to be active.
Extreme heat, flooding and changing weather conditions can disrupt sport and physical activity, damage facilities and make outdoor activity more difficult – particularly for children, older people, disabled people and people living with long-term health conditions.
In Lancashire, we want to make sure our communities are prepared for these challenges while creating more opportunities to enjoy the outdoors.
Because healthier people and a healthier planet go hand in hand.
What We Do
Support Active Travel
Walking, wheeling and cycling can help reduce pollution and support healthier, more sustainable communities. We work with partners to promote active travel and explore ways to make active journeys easier and more accessible.
Connect People with Nature
Access to green and blue spaces can provide valuable opportunities for people to move, connect and improve their wellbeing. We work with partners to promote active travel and explore ways to make active journeys easier and more accessible.
Support Communities
We want communities to have the knowledge, confidence and opportunities to take action for their local environment. Our work includes environmental volunteering, outdoor activities and community-led projects that bring people together while improving the places where they live and spend time.
Make Sport More Sustainable
Climate change has a growing impact on grassroots sport, from cancelled fixtures and damaged facilities to extreme temperatures affecting participation. We're working with clubs, organisations and partners to build awareness, share learning and support more sustainable approaches across sport and physical activity.
