Transition Cornwall + is part of a vibrant, international grassroots movement that began in the United Kingdom in 2005 and has since spread to hundreds of communities around the world. Cornwall is one of the many Canadian communities associated with the international Transition Network.
Transition Cornwall + supports Cornwall and neighbouring communities in facing challenges such as rising cost of energy and food, extreme weather, and financial uncertainty. By working together right now, we can create a more affordable, caring, healthy and secure future for all.
How will Transition Cornwall + achieve its mission?
- By building a network of relationships with supportive organisations and individuals, always working with partners
- By sparking the spirit of community and feelings of power, enjoyment, belonging, and sharing
- By realizing that our key role is as connectors – working through those already involved in the activities
- By creating action groups to work together to revision, rebuild and celebrate this area, including key areas such as food security, health and quality of life, active transportation infrastructure, diverse local business ownership, energy conservation and more
- By being inclusive of all ages and demographic groups in word and action
- By rediscovering the everyday skills of how to fix things, preserve food, and care for our health through better nutrition
- By including a positive and joyful component in all activities and celebrating activities and achievements
In partnership with the City of Cornwall
The City of Cornwall is pleased to partner with Transition Cornwall + by providing space and resources for special events such as Seedy Saturday, held every year in March, Walk and Roll Month in June, and the Incredible Edible Plant Festival, held annually in May.
