Didsbury has the potential to be a thriving sustainable community, having long waiting lists for allotment plots shows that issues of sustainability are already on the minds of many of the residents. There is a large student and young professional population and a wealth of private businesses including re-mastered clothing fashion shops. AFSL aim to reinforce the importance of sustainable living to make practices more widespread in the area.

I have become increasingly concerned about the impact our lifestyles have on the rapidly changing world around us. I believe the way to tackle this is with an inside out approach, if we make changes to live more sustainably companies and governments will be forced to follow our example. I will be working to promote sustainable living and supporting action groups in the didsbury area. |
