Give time
Making a difference
Giving your time to something you feel passionate about can be very rewarding. We strongly believe that by working together we can make make a collective difference.
If you want to do something about climate change, there's loads of ways to get involved simply by giving up some of your time.
Our work covers a broad range of activities involving lots of different groups so there's bound to be something for everyone.
At home
Charity begins at home, and so does your effect on the environment. If you want to make a difference, we can show you how. And you don't have to make the changes alone. You can set up an EcoTeam with friends, family or neighbours.
Did you know the average person taking part in an EcoTeam reduces their carbon emissions by 17%, the water they use by 15% and their household bills by £170 a year?
Join an EcoTeam or set one up, right now.
Young people in local communities
16-25 year olds have loads to offer, which is why we've developed a programme just for you. You can make a real difference to our environment, starting in a place you choose.
We'll give you training and tools so that you know what to do, and new skills so that you are confident about how you should do it. We'll also make sure you meet new people, have fun and do something you can be really proud of.

At school
It's really important that children learn about environmental issues and how to interact and help the world around them. Thanks to Sky, our Appetite for Action website helps primary school children to do just that. They learn through food and what it means to them. Any school can join and all those who get fully involved have the chance to win £3,000.
