The UK Health Alliance on Climate Change UK Health Alliance on Climate Change represents over 1 million people in 49 healthcare organisations, professional bodies and coalitions. 
Why should your organisation join? Please write and ask them!

● Members are calling for their organisations to take action - write to your organisation now - this makes a difference! 

Our unique and useful insights as professionals allied to health  are missing - as an important part of NHS  workforce we think we should be heard

●Calling for actions: - changing diets, active travel – important we know what is happening and can contribute 

Commitments - the list of 11 actions to guide organisations, is a good starting point and can be taken at the pace which suits the organisation

The UKHACC can support with communications/inforamation and advice saving time on policy writing

● We also need to be part of policy reports on adaptation of health service, resilience; weather threats, heat and flooding etc. will HUGELY impact us all and we have value to add 

●When letters go to Gov/ policy makers nationally and internationally there is a stronger message together.   Will be noticed by members if we are missing

●Rate is 28.5p per member, capped at £510 (min payment) and £5580 (max payment). 2.3 pence /month - a very small portion of our membership fees and one most would gladly pay for influencing policy and direction

●Ensure you have your say and add your voice to the calls for change!!
