Over the last 9 years the Action Earth campaign has supported thousands of projects and people in making a positive difference to their local environment. We challenge local communities to identify ways in which they can protect and enhance their built and natural environment to improve their quality of life and safeguard the environment for future generations.
What do we do?
- Provide small grants to local voluntary and community groups to help them purchase the tools, equipment and materials needed.
- Provide local people with information and the opportunity they need to take part (often for the first time) in a local volunteering activity.
- Offer local groups help to develop and publicise new projects and volunteer opportunities.
- Support and encourage local projects that provide opportunities for volunteers to learn new skills.
- Provide people with information about environmental issues, sustainability and encourage them to develop more sustainable, healthy lifestyles.
