Partner with us to accelerate the decarbonisation of schools

Image

Teachers and students want to tackle the climate crisis. Can you help them reach their zero carbon goals?

Your backing will help us bring more schools into our network and equip them with the practical advice and tools they need to decarbonise; it will ensure we can drive progress on the major challenge of building upgrades and, crucially, that we can capitalise on the growing political momentum behind school sustainability.

By investing in the green schools movement, you will be lowering carbon emissions, inspiring young people and supporting a radical shift to sustainability in communities across the UK.

We offer a range of partnership and funding opportunities, from one-off donations through to multi-year strategic partnerships.

Our current funders

Our partnership with Green Future Investments Limited (GFIL)

Green Future Investments Limited (GFIL) is Let’s Go Zero’s core partner. 

GFIL, a private company founded in 2021, provides funding to enable and accelerate climate positive innovation targeting net negative and net zero solutions. GFIL seeks opportunities to partner with organisations who share their values and ambitions for a cleaner, greener future.  

GFIL began pilot work with Let’s Go Zero in late 2022, exploring how to achieve impact on a national scale. This led to an ambitious programme of work to accelerate the decarbonisation of the UK’s schools, which launched in summer 2023. 

Our partnership with OVO Foundation

OVO Foundation joined the Let’s Go Zero campaign in 2022 following the launch of its Climate Changers Programme. Together we have improved access to nature and biodiversity for children and young people across the UK, while supporting schools on their zero-carbon journey.    

Through the partnership, 75 schools have been awarded the OVO Foundation Nature Prize so far. Winning schools received a cash prize to kick start their own nature projects and by inspiring climate action in these schools, the partnership has brought over 37,000 children closer to nature. 

“We were delighted to see so many youth organisations come forward with truly innovative ideas to help make this world a better one. We know there is a huge need for more funding in this space and we’re incredibly proud of the impact we’ve already made… Together, we can inspire and enable the next generation to become the green guardians of tomorrow.”
