Educating and inspiring young people to create a better planet

ecoACTIVE is an innovative environmental education charity.

We offer workshops and courses for schools and community groups, and support community gardening projects.

Our mission

Our mission is to create a world where young people and communities are agents of change to create a better planet.

We use hands-on, practical approaches to explore complex issues of sustainability.

For Schools

Eco Workshops

Our Primary and Secondary workshops inspire young people to become change agents for the future and make small changes that will have a big impact.

Forest School

A wonderful opportunity for children to learn in and from nature. The forest school ethos is about child-led, hands-on experiences.

Green Influencers

Supporting young people as they develop and deliver social action projects in their communities.

Environmental Education at The Leaside Trust

Join ecoACTIVE team for engaging and informative sessions to inspire sustainability. Set alongside the River Lea, with stunning views of Walthamstow Marshes. Working with The Leaside Trust, we offer Hackney’s comprehensive environmental education experience for young people

Community Gardens

Our community gardener works with new and existing community gardens in Hackney and Newham, helping residents develop new skills as they nurture precious green spaces in the city.

Impact Stories

We understand that meaningful change happens when we not only deliver outstanding projects, but also listen to and learn from everyone involved. That’s why we’ve built solid, user-centred monitoring methods that guide our work from planning through to delivery, so participants become co-creators and agents of change in their own communities.
