PL:21 is a Registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) that brings residents together to help make a more sustainable place to live and work.

PL:21 is a Transition Initiative which aims to encourage more ‘Positive Living in the 21st Century ’ for Ivybridge and the surrounding area.

The objective of PL:21 is the promotion of the conservation, protection and improvement of the natural and built environments, and the prudent use of natural resources for the public benefit in the PL21 postal district area in particular by:

Advancing education and raising awareness of climate change, resource scarcity, peak oil and economic resilience Promoting individual, community and organisational commitment to a reduction in co2 emissions, energy saving, reducing reliance upon carbon emitting energy sources, and increasing resilience to resource scarcity.

By getting involved and seeking to adopt more sustainable lifestyles, we can discover new ways of thinking, working, producing and sharing together at a local level; getting more out of our community, as well as helping contribute at a global level.

PL:21 is made up of local residents from a variety of backgrounds and with a wide range of interests and skills. If you have an idea to help make the area more environmentally friendly or to encourage sustainable behaviour please get involved and we’ll try to help you make it happen.

Lee Mill Consultation PL:21 made a submission as part of the consultation to the proposed changes to the Lee Mill slip-road, which, it is hoped, will reduce traffic through the village and improve access to the industrial estate. PL:21 are broadly supportive of the works, however, want to ensure the existing walking/cycle route is prioritised and further environmental improvements are made to the area including the River Yealm, as part of the works.

Aldi Development PL:21 continues to work with ITC and SHDC to explore the wider impacts and possible benefits that can be gained from the planned development in the town centre. We are committed to ensuring open access to the green/blue river corridor and are working to explore ways this space can be improved for the community.
