The Exeter Change Makers Toolkit was developed in 2023 as part of the Exeter City Futures Change Makers Programme, funded by the National Lottery.

The toolkit has been produced to support communities in Exeter with an interest in creating grassroots net zero projects, who would like ideas on how to get started. It could be adapted for businesses, or individuals who would like to bring together a community around this topic.

The toolkit can guide you and your group through the process of working together to design a net zero project, through four stages:

1. Provide plans for each workshop and stage of the process.
2. Lead you through identifying net zero challenges in your community and connecting these to the four Net Zero Exeter 2030 Plan themes.
3. Guide you to a completed project plan, and a decision on whether to take it forward.
4. Offer advice on how to develop the idea, and where to go for funding and further support.
