Two weeks ago, leader of Warwick District Council Cllr Andrew Day, along with leaders and councillors from the four other political groups on the council, launched the WD CAN campaign to fight climate change in the district #WDCAN wdcan.co.uk/climate-action…

This is the first time all the political groups have come together. An emergency demands nothing less. I totally agree with Cllr Alan Boad’s wise words.

🗣 @CllrAlanBoad, leader of the Liberal Democrat Group on Warwick District Council, outlines why he is supporting the ‘YES’ vote in the referendum. #WDCAN

There's eight weeks to go until the vote - so here are eight facts about climate change and pollution to get you thinking #WDCAN wdcan.co.uk/eight-climate-…

All groups – Conservative, Green, Labour, Liberal Democrats and Whitnash Residents Association – have come together to unanimously support the ‘Climate Action Now’ programme to make the council carbon neutral by 2025 and the district carbon neutral by 2030. #WDCAN

Council tax bills received in March to taxpayers in Warwick District will be reflecting the potential increase for the CAN programme due to a legal quirk. Residents can decide whether to keep the increase in May's referendum. More info here 👇wdcan.co.uk/residents-to-h…

🗣 Cllr @mini_mangat of the Labour Party is backing the ‘YES’ vote on May 7. #WDCAN

A 'yes' vote in May's referendum will mean an electric charging network for taxis will come to the district far sooner than planned #WDCAN wdcan.co.uk/electric-taxi-…

A ring-fenced fund to tackle the effects of climate change in Warwick District will be reflected on this month’s council tax bill – and local residents will get to vote on whether to accept the increase #WDCAN wdcan.co.uk/residents-to-h…

A Climate Emergency was unanimously declared by Warwick District Council last June - which led to the CAN campaign #WDCAN wdcan.co.uk

The CAN campaign is seeking to raise ring-fenced funding to invest in targeted projects to make the district carbon-neutral by 2030. The Council agreed the fairest way to raise the money needed is to raise council tax by £1 per week (for Band D) #WDCAN wdcan.co.uk

A 'yes' vote on May 7th will help to improve health and well-being in Warwick District through better housing standards and encouraging more active lifestyles wdcan.co.uk/climate-action… #WDCAN

🗣 Hear from @CllrAndrewDay, leader of @Warwick_DC, on why you should vote ‘YES’ in May’s referendum. #WDCAN

There's nine weeks to go until the referendum - so here are nine reasons to vote YES #WDCAN wdcan.co.uk/nine-reasons-t…

Wise words from Tony - so good to have the leadership from Whitnash for Climate Action Plan.

Warwick District Council is calling for Climate Action Now – ‘CAN’ – to allow the council to become carbon neutral by 2025, and for the district to also become carbon neutral by 2030 #WDCAN wdcan.co.uk

If residents vote ‘yes’ in May's referendum, it will raise £3 million per year for Warwick District Council to directly tackle climate change. The money will be completely ringfenced for CAN projects #WDCAN wdcan.co.uk/warwick-distri…

Good to see the home town leading by example. Can’t imagine everyone will be happy with this idea but kudos to Warwick District Council for asking the question.
