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 Friday November 28th
Street Swaps is a new TKT project that offers a fun and practical way to make better use of our planet’s finite resources; reduce pollution from over-consumption; and develop stronger mutual support in hard times. It’s here to help us build 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.
We’re beginning Kentish Town Street Swaps with a big push to turn the Black Friday November 28th shopping bonanza into Green Friday: a one day celebration of swapping and sharing, that we hope will boost sharing and reuse in Kentish Town, plus launching a new swap and share, reuse and repair, information and activities hub in Kentish Town Library.
