Aim
Climate Fresk UK runs interactive climate change workshops that inspire organisations, communities and schools to take meaningful action
About Climate Fresk UK
Climate Fresk UK is part of a fast-growing global initiative with over 2 million participants globally and 100,000 trained facilitators in 175+ countries.
Our interactive, evidence-based workshops are based on a powerful card game that helps people and organisations make sense of climate change, how it relates to their lives and work, and how they can make a difference together.
We’ve just set up Climate Fresk UK as a Community Interest Company (CIC) - with a board of volunteer Directors - and are scaling up our impact in the UK.
Our goal is to inspire as many people & organisations across the UK as possible - to roll up their sleeves to build a liveable future together, with urgency and agency.
🌍 Why This Matters
The climate crisis is no longer a distant threat - it's here, in the UK. Record-breaking heatwaves. Failing harvests. Coastal erosion and flooding putting homes at risk. Our infrastructure is straining, and the costs - both human and economic - are mounting. And we know this is just the beginning.
But technology and resources alone won't solve this. We also need engagement. Without widespread understanding of what's happening, why it matters to us, and belief that we can do something about it, the societal shifts we need are out of reach.
Climate Fresk is changing that. Our workshops help people and organisations:
- Understand the scientific causes of climate change
- Draw the links between human activity, environmental impact and their own lives and work.
- Process their emotional response to the impacts of climate change, and shift from feelings of despair, anger, apathy and helplessness to a sense of optimism and agency.
- Make the shift from awareness to active engagement.
Using a collaborative, evidence-based approach grounded in IPCC science, Climate Fresk empowers people to have informed, constructive conversations about climate solutions. By shifting mindsets and getting people into action, we aim to accelerate the social tipping points needed to support a liveable world.
🤝 What Your Support Makes Possible
This campaign will enable us to scale our activity and reach more communities, local groups and schools across the UK.
To make that happen, we need to fund the core work behind the scenes so that we can support our facilitator community more effectively. That includes:
- Communication resources & campaigns to reach new audiences - a new website, videos, flyers and posters
- Community outreach and programme delivery - supporting our team of over 3,000 Climate Fresk facilitators.
- Infrastructure and tools to support the running of our workshops and facilitator training.
Thank you for your support!
