Help the next generation be part of a sustainable future

We know that industry wants access to students and schools want access to industry, the challenge is often how to bring them together. Your Green Future helps to address this challenge and enables businesses to not only help shape their future workforce but also communicate with them the efforts they are already making and what they (THE STUDENTS) themselves can do to bring about change.

Business involvement at all levels of Your Green Future is vital to its success and we are always looking for businesses to support our programme be that through sponsorship or giving time by mentoring at an event. Take a look below at how you can get involved.

Skills for your staff

Sharing your expertise and talking to a group of teenagers helps hone that talent of thinking on your feet. The scrutiny of ideas by the students, often posing surprisingly considered questions, provides an opportunity to develop communication skills.

Helps sharpen presentation skills and appreciate your work a lot more when you remove yourself from it for a day – sustainable job satisfaction!

Ideas for change

Build connections and gain inspiration for the environmental issues you are tackling through working with diverse audiences, including students who unfettered by practicalities often provide truly novel solutions to problems put to them.

It is a great way to meet colleagues in other industries and see what they are doing to tackle similar issues in the same subject area.
