completed in January 2012. The strategy is attached below. For
more information please contact jo.ireland@scarborough.gov.uk.
Scarborough Borough Emissions Working Group
We are keen to consider practical ways that emissions can
be reduced locally.
The aim of the emissions working group is for partners with
relevant expertise and knowledge, from the public, private and
voluntary sectors to work together to share good
practice, promote more sustainable ways of working and to
assist with the practical delivery of initiatives.
Currently the Community Strategy for the Borough has
sustainability as one of its underlying principles, and recognises
the need at a local level for partners to play their part in
achieving global targets to reduce Co2 emissions.
Partners participating in the group include the
Borough Council, Yorkshire Coast Homes, Yorkshire
Energy Partnership, Sustainable Scarborough and Next
Generation Now.
The group has developed an eco blog to encourage sustainable
business practice which can be accessed
at www.scarboroughbusiness.org/ecoblog.
We are currently working on producing bus maps showing key
routes within the Borough.
We welcome feedback and suggestions from public, private and
voluntary individuals/groups to help us achieve our goals.
Older People Strategy Group
This group was made up of representatives from NY&Y
Primary Care Trust, North Yorkshire County Council, Scarborough
Borough Council, Yorkshire Coast Homes and Age Concern. We
have developed an Older Person's Strategy for the Borough of
Scarborough called "Growing Older on the North Yorkshire
Coast". To view the Strategy click on the link below.
