In our June Coffee with a Cause Jackie Marshall, former Head of Marketing at Fairtrade, hosts the session and interviews Parisa Wright, founder of Greener & Cleaner to explore how we can support the growth of their amazing charity that is tackling the loneliness epidemic, the cost of living crisis and the climate emergency all at once.
Their innovative Community Hub in The Glades shopping centre in Bromley has turned a vacant space into a thriving place for a diverse range of people to learn from each other how they can live more sustainably, while saving money, learning new skills and building a more resilient social network.
People come to the Hub to learn new skills such as sewing, to borrow equipment from their Library of Things, to volunteer or to meet new people in a supportive environment.
Greener & Cleaner also use their Hub to test and learn. They are building a ‘Blueprint’ for success to help other community groups and charities to replicate this model in vacant spaces in shopping centres and high streets around the UK.
Our members are working with Parisa to help grow the charity by strengthening and diversifying their funding streams, particularly through their work with businesses. And if you would like to join us in supporting their work please get in touch at anna@marketingkind.org.
