Overview
We’re experts in helping communities live more sustainably – making social and environmental change happen, project by project, so people and our planet can thrive.
We believe powerful change can be simple to make: small steps everyone can take to make their own lives better can help our world towards a healthier, more sustainable future too.
We make that change happen project by project. Each one we run focuses on the things that matter to those they support across our core themes of Climate, Travel, Food, People, Nature and Sharing.
But we never tell anyone what to do. We meet people where they’re at. We show communities what’s possible. We help them figure out what works best for them. And we give them the skills and confidence they need to make good things happen.
That’s how we’re changing our world for the better, project by project. It’s how we help people; communities and our planet thrive.
