ACE is a progressive environmental charity which promotes sustainable living and which provides a platform where individuals, groups and communities can share innovative ideas around sustainability. Our organisation brings together an experienced team with a passion for creating behaviour change and with a vision for an environmentally and socially sustainable future.
ACE is an environmental charity and our mission is:
Engaging individuals and communities in pro-environmental behaviour change and promoting sustainable lifestyles.
Supporting communities to develop skills, structures and networks to be able to take action in their local environment and lead the development of their community.
Working with businesses to inspire and encourage them to adopt practices which add environmental and social value.
We want to ensure that our actions contribute to protecting the natural environment and preserving its ability to support human life.
We value the importance of giving individuals and communities the opportunity, skills and confidence to identify, define and solve issues that concern them.
We believe that participation of people from different backgrounds, sharing different perspectives and respecting each other's differences enrich decision-making processes.
We think that everyone has the right to live without being affected by environmental hazards and that everyone should have the same opportunities to actively participate in society.
