Our strategy
UK100 is the only network of ambitious councils led by all political parties working together to tackle climate change.
Our vision and mission
Our vision is for a nation where communities tackle climate change together, creating thriving places powered by clean energy — with fresh air to breathe, warm homes to live in, and a healthy natural environment.
We’re working to achieve this by uniting ambitious, cross-party local leaders to tackle climate change in their communities, showing them what works, and making the case for greater local powers.
We change the rules to put local leaders at the heart of climate action. We do this by:
- Building consensus across party lines to empower local delivery
- Bridging the gap between local and national leadership
- Engaging with Westminster and Whitehall to influence policies and laws
We ensure that our members can deliver at pace and scale. We do this by:
- Sharing knowledge and best practice
- Providing coaching and 1-2-1 support to our members
- Convening sector-leading stakeholders and facilitating partnerships
We gather insights from our members to build the case for greater climate action. We do this by:
- Identifying challenges and solutions to climate action
- Producing practical delivery resources for our network
- Building the evidence base for national change
Our values
We maximise our impact by putting excellence at the heart of all we do — from innovative projects to everyday tasks. This enables us to punch above our weight in tackling the defining challenge of our time.
- We are ambitious: we maximise our impact by putting excellence at the heart of all we do — from innovative projects to everyday tasks. This enables us to punch above our weight in tackling the defining challenge of our time.
- We are evolving: we are always learning and adapting to new opportunities and challenges. By sharing these insights we work to overcome barriers to local climate action.
- We are collaborative: united in our mission, we foster collaboration across teams, organisations, and political divides.
- We are principled: we act with integrity on behalf of our members, doing what's right, even when it's difficult.
What we’re aiming for
Our programmes work towards three main outcomes:
- Our network are able to drawdown the expertise, resources, and strategic guidance needed.
- Climate solutions are co-created by councils and communities.
- Achieving tangible national changes to legislation and policy frameworks, having built the case for greater local climate action and devolution of power.
