Our Team

We're a small (but mighty) team of FUNDRAISERS, creative STRATEGISTS and music lovers working together to put the planet at the heart of an industry we love.

Our Executive Team based in the UK, and our Boards of Trustees for the UK and US organizations, work hard to connect the dots — and the people — who can help turn up the volume on climate action.
