Are you ready to join the challenge?

We can all act on climate change, with small changes that add up to a big difference. 

As an organisation we’ve committed to cutting our carbon emissions and today we’re launching a new programme to help us do exactly that. The Net Zero Challenge is all about showing you easy ways to reduce your carbon footprint and reward you for the changes you’re making! 

There are a range of activities you can take part in - including travelling actively, going paperless and recycling - through an interactive online platform and app. For each action you take, you’ll earn ‘Green Points’ with prizes up for grabs for the top earners.

We’ll also be competing against other organisations in our sector and across the UK to win donations for charities.

What can I win?

There’s the chance for individuals to win a £20 voucher each month, with a choice of vouchers for the winners including National Book Tokens, Boobalou, Marks & Spencer and Love2Shop – or you donate your prize to charity.

Each year, one organisation taking part in the challenge will win £250 for charity with a choice of: Trees for Cities, Galapagos Conservation Trust, The Trussell Trust, Surfers Against Sewage and Sustrans.

How do I join the challenge?
