Keeping it green…
Alex June 1st, 2008
I’ve long been involved with the environmental conservation charity BTCV, and have always been surprised that they haven’t tried to get more from the willingness of companies to spend money on team-building type days…
Well, it appears they are now, with their Employee Volunteering scheme. I’m not sure how long this has been running – so I may be a little behind the times!. Groups can spend a day (or more) on a practical conservation task (similar to the day some of us from KMi spent at the Greensands Trust in Leighton Buzzard helping to build a new boardwalk). It’s all good fun so will see if we can get a group from KMi out again…

Cool – I do BTCV-type stuff round my way (Edgewick Farm – three fields managed as meadows with mostly-open access), and we work with the Greensand Trust as well. And I did a (successful) bid for us to get landfill tax money for a boardwalk too!
