CAVE

Chippenham and Villages Environmentalists.

CAVE is a Special Interest Group (SIG) of the Chippenham Area Community Partnership (ChAP) .

A new group has been launched in the Chippenham and surrounding area whose aims are to improve the quality of life through environmental means.

WHO ARE WE?

•  Local People, all voluntary
•  Supported by the district council BUT not run by the council
•  People who have an interest in making things happen for the good in our area.
•  Mixed background, all private individuals.

WHAT WE STAND FOR

• Want to improve our quality of life and achieve some of the objectives set out in the community plan as well as many of our own.
• We believe in a more sustainable lifestyle, but we recognise it is not always easy to do this.
• We want to represent the community and help people change things in the area and protect the environment  for future generations.
• We want to put more pride into our community.

WHAT ARE WE DOING?

•  Tackling issues in the community plan
•  Focusing on helping schools and local businesses with a programme of initiatives.
•  Facilitating other groups in the area, putting people in touch, filling the gaps.
•  Lobbying out local politicians and council for improvements to environmental legislation.

WHAT DO WE WANT PEOPLE TO DO TO HELP US?

•  If they like our objectives we would like volunteers with time and ideas to help us make things happen
•  If they have new ideas or just want to get involved we would welcome them.
•  If they have a project that needs help we can help them, come and see us and we can talk about it.
