MetroCentre, the North East’s popular shopping and entertainment destination, has teamed up with social enterprise Climate Action North to advance its green initiatives.

March 20th 2025 is World Rewilding Day and this year’s theme, Rewilding Together, celebrates the growing movement for nature’s recovery.

Rewilding isn’t limited to large areas. It can also thrive on a smaller scale, a concept known as community rewilding. Here we demystify what community rewilding is, the benefits, and how to get involved.

Climate Action North: a new role with rewilding funding

Climate Action North supercharges 'Green June' with events

A two-day online conference to share hopeful rewilding stories marked this year’s World Environment Day and World Oceans Day.

We need climate action on all fronts, everywhere all at once. Failure is not an option for Climate Action North, the social enterprise that helps businesses and communities take the necessary changes to halt the climate crisis.

Climate Action North has been awarded a £15,000 grant to expand its rewilding support for landowners, project managers, and local groups across the North of England.

For years, nature hasn’t been seen as a partner but rather as something to defeat and destroy. The results are disastrous. Over half of our species are in decline, 15 percent are threatened with extinction, and all top predators have been hunted to extinction, as cited by Rewilding Britain.

The annual 30 Days Wild challenge celebrates the rich nature on our doorstep by spending a month doing something ‘wild’ every day and appreciating the natural world.
