The Environment
Home » About NPC » Our expertise »
Environmental action needs to be about people as much as the planet if it is to succeed. Both the climate and nature crises and the actions we’re taking to confront it will affect different people in different ways, and people who are poor or marginalised may be hit hardest.
Social and environmental charities and funders must therefore work together and with communities if our response to the environmental crises is to benefit everyone.
Everyone’s Environment programme
We are working with over 60 social and environmental charities to empower people from the UK’s diverse social groups to have a say on how we confront the climate and nature crises.
We begin with programme strands looking at the issues for young people, minority ethnic groups, disabled people and older people, and those living with health conditions. We hope to expand the Everyone’s Environment programme to include poor housing and poverty, and geographical challenges like flooding, drought, coastal erosion, and isolated rural communities.

How we can help you
At NPC, we’re helping charities and funders step up their role in the transition to a post-carbon economy, working together across social and environmental areas. Get in touch to learn how we can help you.
We can help:
- Funders to embed environmental giving into your funding portfolio, including identifying potential grantees. We think every philanthropist and funder can protect our environment and support environmental issues. We can help you identify areas of underfunding and opportunity, such as the environmental determinants of mental health.
- Funders and charities to understand where social and environmental issues overlap. Our Healthy Planet, Healthy People briefing is a good example of how this can be done with health.
- Funders and charities to develop or refresh your strategy, including embedding relevant environmental issues into social issue focussed strategies and vice versa.
- Funders and charities to improve your impact practice, such as developing a theory of change for environmental programmes.
