Make a positive difference to our community and the environment.

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.
