Transition Alnwick is preparing for the next exciting phase of preparing for a post-oil world.
We would now like to know which direction you would like the group to move in. There are going to be distinct interest groups established which will look at how each area will be impacted by Peak Oil and how we as a community can prepare Alnwick area for that. What we would like to know is which group you are interested in.

We also have ideas that each group could decide to take forward as examples of what they could do – the ideas are not exhaustive or a “to-do” list – if you have your own ideas then these will be equally valid.
