2020 Vision:
20 months to
make a lasting difference
In April 2018 Kate, a long- standing member of Transition Lymington dreamt up the concept of
Lymington 2020 Vision. In each of the 20 months leading up to the year 2020 the group collated a
tick list of ideas, links and local ways in which to make Lymington a more sustainable place. Each
month the list was published on line to distribute the ideas across the area.
Now, having reached the end of our 20 months, our 20 tick lists are a treasure trove of creative
challenges that can be used now and in the future to make a difference locally, nationally and
internationally.
Our final list of suggestions could help with your New Year’s Resolutions. However, take a look at
our Facebook site for the full set.
In the writing and completing of the Lymington 2020 Vision challenges, members of Transition
Lymington team have found fun and inspiration, and if you haven’t discovered them yet, now is a
great time to do so.
Get involved this year by coming along to our next 3 events, being held at Lymington Community
