DMU launches £1.3m grassroots climate action project

De Montfort University Leicester (DMU) has secured more than £1.3m in National Lottery funding to lead a major new community-driven climate initiative aimed at embedding sustainability in some of the city’s most deprived neighbourhoods. The three-year scheme, called Leicester Environmental Action and Future (LEAF), will bring together five grassroots organisations working with diverse communities across the city.
