Welcome
Transition Kentish Town was formed in 2010 in response to the climate and ecological crisis. We believe that working as a community we can make a difference and enjoy getting to know our neighbours. Our principles are based on avoiding the depletion of natural resources, pollution and carbon emissions and acting in a socially just way, by acting local and thinking global. In 2024 we received funding from Transition Together to relaunch Transition Kentish Town.
This website contains news and events for Transition Kentish Town and related groups. For further information on Transition Kentish Town and the Transition movement, see www.transitionkentishtown.org.uk

Kentish Town Street Swaps on Saturday 18th April
The next Street Swaps is on Saturday 18th April at the Hampstead Heath Education Centre, Parliament Hill Fields Lido, Gordon House Road entrance, London NW5. This event takes place on UK Action for Nature Day, so we’re adding a special ‘Nature Swap’ meetup and ideas swap session for local nature care groups to the usual Street Swap action.
The event runs from 10am – 3.0pm and if you live in nearby streets you’ll receive invitations to join the Street Swapping action on your street, and at the Street Swap stall. And if you live a bit further away, you can also join the fun by just bringing your items to the swap stall.a stronger culture of swapping and sharing; and repairing and reusing, of everyday domestic and personal items in Kentish Town. And we’re running it with some support from Think & Do Camden and funding from the Camden Climate Fund. Read more…
