South West London Environment Work (SWLEN) is a charity dedicated to helping people and organisations protect and enhance our local environment. We work in the London Boroughs of Richmond upon Thames, Kingston upon Thames and Hounslow. We help local environmental groups with everything from getting started and raising funds to administration and best practice. We facilitate collaboration between groups, ensuring they work together towards the common goal of improving our local environment. SWLEN also chairs and acts as the Secretariat of the Richmond Biodiversity Partnership. SWLEN also provides the following services under our Smart Communities brand: • Runs community based projects to promote energy and waste reduction using the "Street Champions" approach.
