Did you know the UK faces a staggering waste problem, with London boroughs alone disposing of 751,000 tons of junk in landfills yearly? That’s the equivalent of 75 Eiffel Towers being discarded annually.
How CAN YOUR company makE a difference
Your organization can join Eco Around for an impactful corporate volunteering opportunity. Specifically, we support London-based companies to clean up around their offices and, consequently, help create a positive impact through volunteering in their community. Indeed, everyone has the power to make an environmental difference, so let’s start together.
BENEFITS OF CORPORATE VOLUNTEERING
Participate in corporate volunteering litter picking to not only enhance team connections, but also boost employee motivation, and give back to the community. Furthermore, showcase your positive actions on social media to boost your brand. Your efforts will directly contribute to protect local wildlife and communities, ultimately leaving a real mark.
By encouraging employee volunteerism and organising community service activities, you can significantly contribute to your company’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) goals. In essence, CSR involves businesses taking responsibility for their impact on society and the environment. Therefore, companies can achieve their CSR goals through a variety of activities that align with their values, business operations, and community needs.
Additionally, your financial contribution helps and supports Eco Around’s monthly community litter pick events.
HOW DOES IT WORK
For corporate teams seeking team-building experiences, Eco Around UK offers engaging corporate volunteering litter-picking events for up to 30 people in London boroughs near your company’s office.
The experience includes a 30-minute presentation on the waste problem, recycling, and how to reduce it, followed by a 1 hour and 30-minute litter pick.
Depending on the numbers, the team will be split into two groups, and a friendly competition will ensue to see which group can collect the most litter. We will also weigh and measure the impact in terms of the weight of waste collected.
Additionally, a little eco-prize will be awarded to the person who finds the most unusual or fun piece of litter.
If you are looking for a longer engagement or have multiple teams to involve, we can tailor the event to meet your specific needs.
Make a difference, together. Join us at Eco Around to create a lasting impact through volunteering and community engagement.
