Waldringfield is a small parish situated in the Suffolk Coast and Heaths National Landscape on the West bank of the River Deben. We are a small community and are proud of our very special area of outstanding natural beauty that consists of areas of open heathland, saltmarsh, and food producing farmland, all host to a diverse habitat for wildlife.

We are a community-led group that has been co-opted by our Parish Council, after it declared a climate and ecological emergency in January 2021. We are tasked with producing a Climate & Biodiversity Action Plan to work towards reducing our local carbon footprint, promote sustainable living and encourage actions that support biodiversity, especially where this is threatened.
We believe that every person can make a difference and that together, we can create a vision for local action that leaves a legacy for future generations.
