Guildford Living Lab

Guildford Living Lab, a legacy of the H2020 iSCAPE project since 2016, is a platform for co-operation between researchers, local communities and stakeholders. Our shared vision is to raise awareness of air pollution and climate change, and to co-create and co-design sustainable solutions.

Car Free Day
