Thanks to all those who applied to join Kirklees Climate Commission as a Commissioners - bringing connections, experience and abilities from education, community, business and public sectors.

The process is for a few Commissioners to meet applicants and make recommendations.  All existing Commissioners are involved in the decision to appoint new Commissioners.  The Commissioner role is voluntary and they are appointed for three years.

We will share news about who the new Commissioners are soon.  Thanks again to all those who applied and those who promoted the opportunity.

Volunteering for Kirklees Climate Commission means we are surrounded by climate experts who often have decades of experience, and sometimes it can be mind-blowing. We have volunteered to help because we know it matters but do, we really know why?  In this article, we aim to demystify and help us all make more sense of it all and know why, and what we need to do.
