Welcome to the MERCi home page. We are an independent charity (established in 1996) working to turn ideas into action for a more sustainable future - by this, we mean a future that is greener, safer, healthier and more equitable.

You can help to create this future by volunteering with us, holding your meetings and conferences at Bridge 5 Mill, working in partnership with us, renting office space at Bridge 5 Mill, participating in our projects and spreading the news.

This website will give you information about our projects and help and advice on how you can get involved in creating a more sustainable way of life. You can also find out more about MERCi and the journeys that we have already taken by clicking on About Us.

We hope you enjoy our website and welcome any suggestions or feedback on your visit.
