| Young Green Sussex is an exciting new local initiative, linking to the national Young Green Briton Challenge . YGBC has been spearheaded by Social Innovation for All, a Mid Sussex based social enterprise. BHBPA members now have the exciting opportunity to help bring this programme to students and schools in Sussex. |
 Bio-degradable toys. I was impressed with the way this team of young entrepreneurs created their business plan.   The ‘Nurturing Nature’ project invoked the principle of the circular economy to make and fill bird feeders across their school. |
 SEN schools also participate. This school came down from Liverpool. They created a truly inspiring social media campaign to encourage litter picks. Superlative communication skills.  Rachel Birrell-Gray (Adelphi), Kat Crisp (Young Green Briton Challenge), Richard Cox (BHBPA) & Ellen Holroyd (Adelphi) |
| The Young Green Briton Challenge launched in 2022 and is sparking a green revolution in schools supporting over 6000 young people to date to design, present and implement innovative ideas for tackling climate change. 82% of young people who’ve taken part now feel more hopeful about tackling climate change. 91% increased their knowledge about climate change. Over 80% have learnt skills they think will help them in their future. Here’s how the programme works Teachers use our lessons to explore the causes & impacts of climate change in their local communityIn teams students then pick local eco-problems to tackle from saving wildlife to fighting fast fashion, cutting food waste or reducing litter. Our team delivers a fun, fast paced design workshop, enabling teams to brainstorm, prototype and share their ideas. Students go on to pitch to an Eco-Dragons Den to receive money and help to bring their ideas to life. We come together to celebrate achievement within Sussex and the best teams will represent Sussex at the National Celebration Event Here’s how you can help We are seeking support for more schools in Sussex to participate from September in the form of both sponsorship and volunteer engagement to support both design workshops and the eco dragon’s den events.  Your support will be showcased at the Sussex and national celebration event and across our social media channels. See our LinkedIn page: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/young-green-briton-challenge   We look forward to welcoming all of our supporters to the 2025 celebration event.  |
