Get Involved
If you are interested in building a stronger community and creating a more sustainable way of life, then why not get involved with Transition Belper? As a community group we are made up of volunteers, and even a small contribution of time and enthusiasm can go a long way.
Anyone can be involved, regardless of your interests, skills or experience. Below are just some ideas to get you started.

Green Exchange and Repair Café
Each month we hold our Green Exchange and Repair Café at No.28 Market Place, with talented fixers on hand to repair items such as electrical goods, toys and clothes, and a variety of swap events throughout the year, on themes from garden produce to children’s shoes. If you’d like to help, or if you’ve got an idea for a swap theme you’d like to arrange, then please get in touch – we couldn’t run these events without all of our fantastic volunteers.
Join One Of Our Active Groups
Whether you’re passionate about saving energy, conserving green spaces, permaculture, reducing waste or simply community connections – we have a group for you! Visit our What we do page for further info and contacts.
Apply For Support With A Project Or Event
If you’ve got an idea for an activity – a community group, a school project, some training, a film showing, quiz, talk or debate – we’d love to hear from you. Drop us an email and we’ll send you a Project Proposal form. We’re able to offer small amounts of funding along with legal and practical support.

Once a month we hold a social evening in a local pub – all are welcome! Please see the Events calendar for this month‘s date and venue.
