A school sustainability programme empowering young people and their communities to reduce waste and carbon emissions.
With nine impactful challenges that reduce waste and emissions with measurable results.
Our Planet Needs You transforms schools into hubs for climate action.
Through live monthly assemblies, practical challenges, and a competition leaderboard, the programme engages thousands of students in low-carbon lifestyles, reducing waste and emissions while helping school leaders decarbonise their estates by 2030.
Our Youth Lead and Social Value Volunteer Programme empowers secondary students and local employees to support programme delivery in schools, building leadership and communication skills while creating a self-sustaining model that embeds sustainability into everyday life.
Every person plays their part.
Every action counts.
