We are pleased to announce that we have just been awarded the Bronze Eco Circuit Award! We are the first Methodist Circuit in Wales to achieve this!
This is what they said:
There are many positive aspects of your application, and it’s particularly encouraging to read about some of the eco events and initiatives that have taken place within your Circuit churches and collaborations with other denominations, too in Cardiff through the EC network.
Your Environment Policy (which is shared on your Circuit website) is comprehensive and we are delighted that you have already undertaken a baseline assessment, marking actions for the future and progression. Also that you aligned it with the five categories of the Eco Church survey. When you next review, we recommend that your Environment Policy includes looking at targets for carbon reduction and more action on nature, land and biodiversity initiatives.
Your various methods for supporting and encouraging churches on their Eco church journey are great- from the WhatsApp group and other social media sharing to regular face-to-face meetings.
Thank you for sharing your list of churches with awards. You have certainly achieved a significant number of awarded Eco Churches in your Circuit and so that is looking encouraging moving forwards too. We hope that this circuit award will help motivate others who have not registered yet to do so and work towards awards.
