We’re thrilled to share that we didn’t just reach that goal – we surpassed it.

After setting an ambitious goal last year, more than doubling our previous fundraising total to over £580,000, we felt it was only right to aim higher again. So, this year, we set out to raise £1 million for our portfolio of high-impact climate and nature charities.

This year, we raised over £1.6 million.

This is a phenomenal result, and a testament to your support and belief in our mission.

It represents a 275% increase on last year’s fundraising, bringing the total raised since our inception to over £3 million raised for our portfolio of outstanding charities.

What this has made possible: Thanks to your support, this funding is already translating into tangible, high-impact outcomes. At this scale, we are helping to:

  • Protect and restore vast areas of land and ocean – including safeguarding over 100,000 acres of tropical rainforest and strengthening protection across critical marine ecosystems
  • Prevent tens of millions of tonnes of CO₂ emissions by avoiding deforestation and supporting more sustainable land use
  • Drive systemic change; from challenging destructive fishing practices in European waters to shifting financial flows away from deforestation through better data and transparency
  • Support farmers and communities to adopt regenerative practices that improve livelihoods while reducing environmental impact
  • Restore critical ecosystems, including tens of thousands of trees in biodiversity hotspots

This is what effective climate giving looks like: not just funding activity, but enabling measurable, scalable impact. It also highlights the efficiency of our model: for every £1 spent on operating costs, we deliver £6.50 to our portfolio of climate and nature charities, unlocking significantly more funding for high-impact climate solutions.

And this is only the start. Over the past five years, we’ve proven that our approach works, unlocking new streams of philanthropy to tackle the climate and nature crises.

By 2030, we aim to raise £30 million annually for high-impact charities, accelerating solutions when they matter most.

Thank you for being part of this journey!
