As a small, non-profit social enterprise with a limited income, we are only able to continue providing our services free to state-funded schools and families in the community because of the funding and donations we receive. If you are able to help us by providing any of the items below, or any in-kind services, please contact us.
Useful donations include:
Unopened bags of peat-free compost, packets of child-friendly plant seeds, and child-friendly plants.
Half standard native trees including apple, pear and plum fruit trees (from February - April each year).
Spring flowering bulbs including daffodils, bluebells, crocus and snowdrops (from September - November each year).
Small wildlife habitats including wooden bird nesting boxes, insect hotels and amphibian homes.
Kids' clothing and small toys (October-November each year for our annual Christmas Children's Give and Take events).
Water butts (as new or in excellent condition) and water saving devices for our water conservation activities.
2 x energy efficient laptops (refurbished welcome) for use by Little Green Change colleagues and work experience students.
Eco-friendly items for prize draws and our fundraising activities. Please contact us if you have any suggested items you are able to donate.

Help fund our work
Our community and state-funded school activities are always free, as we want to reach as many children as possible including those from under-privileged families. This is only possible through the funding and donations we receive.
