Our Strategy
Our new strategy is built on a simple but powerful idea: real change happens when communities and politicians work together.
With the UK’s 2030 climate commitments fast approaching, this is a critical moment to strengthen democractic engagement, amplify community voices, and push for ambitious, inclusive climate and nature action.
Letter from our CEO, Laura
I am honoured to introduce Hope for the Future’s Strategic Plan for 2025-2027. There has never been a more important time for the UK to take bold action for climate change and nature.
Climate change and biodiversity loss are urgent, defining challenges of our time, and with the UK’s legally binding commitments for 2030 fast approaching, the time for meaningful action is now. The strategy we present today comes not only from a place of hope, but from the pressing need to act swiftly and decisively.
Communities at the forefront of change
To position communities at the heart of climate and nature policy in alignment with the UK's 2030 commitments
To strengthen the ability of underrepresented groups and those most affected by the climate and nature crises to have a stronger voice in the democratic process and connect with their politicians.
To ensure climate and nature campaigns at all scales are more effective as a result of enhanced collaboration, democratic engagement tools and skill sharing.
To actively mobilise communities with a flexible approach, allowing us to respond rapidly and strategically to external changes in policy and practice. This enables us to make a meaningful impact for communities and organisations striving to influence climate and nature policy.
A strong and resilient charity
To strengthen and maintain the resilience of the charity, so that our work is sustainable, grows its impact and creates lasting change for people, the climate and nature
To conduct research and foster learning to strengthen our work and enhance climate and nature campaigning at both grassroots and organisational levels.
To ensure Hope for the Future is a financially sustainable charity with a diverse income model.
