What KSCA has done and what we plan to achieve

A group of walkers talk whilst walking through the fields where Kingsway's proposed solar farm will be. There are rolling hills and wind turbines in the fields behind them.

In April 2025 we held our first AGM. During the meeting, we introduced who we are, what we stand for and what we aim to achieve.
