Our mission statement

ecoACTIVE is an innovative environmental education charity with a reputation for using hands-on, practical approaches to explore complex issues of sustainability. ecoACTIVE's mission is to create a world where young people and communities are agents of change for creating a better planet.

We design and deliver interactive, fun and engaging workshops to empower people to take meaningful action on sustainability. We create eye-opening experiences for children and adults alike, running workshops in schools, parks, community gardens, and with community groups and housing associations.

 

An ecoACTIVE Community

We embrace the concept of “Think Global; Act Local” by helping school and community groups to understand critical global issues and the small actions they can take to make a difference.

We invite you to join an active and supportive community by connecting with us on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. You may contact us through any of these means or through [email protected] if you would like to book a workshop or have any questions or comments. It would be great to hear about the sustainability journey you are taking with your community.

If you would like to become one of our brilliant volunteers, please have a look at our Join Us page.  We are so lucky to have volunteers assisting during workshops, helping in the office and guiding the organisation as part of our Management Committee.
