The climate and nature emergency affects us all, and we all deserve a voice in what happens next. Our partners are drawn from across Welsh civil society and beyond and, together, we’re a diverse and powerful voice for modern Wales.
The strength of our campaign is drawn from our diversity - the people and causes we represent. If you’re an organisation based in Wales, and you think we’re missing an important perspective, then get in touch and become part of the movement.
“Being part of a network that gets stuff done across Wales is what Climate Cymru is about to us. Together, we're louder and stronger. ”
Daniel, Campaigner, Coal Action Network

If you can’t afford membership costs: We recognise that not all organisations are in a situation that will allow them to contribute financially. We believe that it is critical to keep the Climate Cymru network diverse and inclusive, so we are committed to keeping a free option for those who cannot contribute but wish to be a member.
For those with the capacity to contribute more, we urge you to consider covering the cost of those who are unable to pay a membership fee. By doing so, you will help ensure that the environmental, climate and social justice movement in Wales is not dominated by the few, but strengthened through broad and diverse engagement.
“The Climate and Nature Emergencies are impacting us in Wales and across the world right now. We all need to take action, and work together to make sure that we move away from climate-wrecking emissions urgently and in a fair and just way. That’s why we’re proud to be part of the Climate Cymru network, and work with organisations, community groups and partners from across Wales to campaign and collaborate for a better, greener and fairer future for all. ”
