Working in partnership

Businesses play a vital role in the UK’s transition to a more sustainable future. ecoACTIVE is keen to work in partnership with companies who are making a positive difference to people and the environment.

As a grass-roots charity based in East London, we work directly with communities, schools, and residents living in Hackney and surrounding boroughs. Our impactful and inspiring projects provide our beneficiaries with new skills, opportunities to improve wellbeing, and help people feel more connected to nature.

We can support businesses to reduce their impact on the environment, engage directly with local residents, help employees learn more about sustainability, and meet their CSR objectives.

    Benefit the community

    Existing partners have enabled us to have a positive impact on our local community in East London. Donations from our partners have contributed directly to our Forest school programme, our Green Influencers projects, and our community gardens. Visit our Impact Pages to find out more about our engaging projects.

    Learn about sustainability

    Book one of our engaging sustainability sessions for you and your colleagues…

    Option 1. Shrink Your Carbon Footprint with Actionable Sustainability Practices (1.5 hrs, online)
    You will learn the tools you need to implement behavioral change strategies and shrink your carbon footprint at home and at work. You will come away with practical tools and achievable action plans to implement immediately, and become part of the solution instead of being a contributor to the problem.

    Option 2. Learn how to Calculate Your Carbon Footprint and discuss with your coworkers how to lower it (1 hour, online)
    This session will help you assess how big your impact on the planet is as an individual; we will learn the actions that you can take to shrink your carbon footprint, at home and at work.

    Donate

    One-off or regular donations towards ecoACTIVE’s projects really make a meaningful difference to the lives of our beneficiaries. For example, with your help we could buy plants, tools and raised beds for one of our community gardens, or fund an artist to work with a group of young people, helping their community learn more about local wildlife.

    Follow the link below to make a one-off donation, or a recurring contribution to our work (as an individual).
