About Transition Tynedale

Transition Tynedale is a local group, that has been active since 2008. We are part of the international Transition network. 

We’re a company limited by guarantee run entirely by volunteers. Find out more under How We’re Run.

Our aim is to be inclusive, positive and enabling.

Our overall purpose is to promote projects which help Tynedale – a very special part of Northumberland – mitigate the impact of the climate change and biodiversity emergencies.

Our current project areas are Food, Energy, Nature and Repair. In each section, you can explore our current projects and find out how you can be involved. We welcome new volunteers, expertise, enthusiasm and ideas.

We’re always happy to share our ideas and experience with anyone interested in starting something similar in their own area.

what our volunteers have to say?

I joined Transition Tynedale a year ago, drawn by their commitment to sustainability and community. Being part of the Energy project has been incredibly rewarding; not only have I contributed to increasing our area's use of renewable sources, but I've also gained a wealth of knowledge about energy conservation.

What stands out most, however, is the sense of community and shared purpose. It's more than just volunteering; it's being part of a movement that's making a tangible difference in Northumberland.

As someone passionate about local food systems, the Food project at Transition Tynedale has given me the opportunity to put my passion into action. From setting up community gardens to organizing food-sharing events, the work is varied and impactful. The best part? Seeing how our efforts strengthen community bonds and promote sustainability. Every project, every event feels like a step forward towards a more resilient and connected community.

I stumbled upon Transition Tynedale's Nature project at a time when I was searching for ways to contribute to biodiversity conservation. The experience has been nothing short of transformative. Not only have I been involved in projects that restore natural habitats and increase local biodiversity, but I've also met a group of people who are genuinely committed to making a difference.

Volunteering here has deepened my understanding of environmental issues and shown me the power of community action.
