Landscape desecrated by climate change.

Everyone’s environment

About the programme

The Everyone’s Environment programme is a collaboration of over 60 social and environmental charities to accelerate action on the social impacts of the environmental crises. The environmental crises do not affect all people in the same way; some of the most disadvantaged and marginalised people are worst affected by our changing environment and related policy. Charities and funders have a critical role to play in supporting and empowering different social groups to be part of the solutions.

We recognize that there are many pressures on charities currently, however the climate and nature crises matter to your mission and are an immediate challenge that needs the attention of senior leaders in the sector now. The people you support are affected and their voices need to be heard, including by policy makers. It can be hard for charities to explore what the environmental crises means for their strategy, programmes and advocacy – which is why the Everyone’s Environment programmes collective findings will help you.

Now more than ever social and environmental charities must operate systemically and collaborate to achieve impact for people and planet – join us if you agree.

It’s #EveryonesEnvironment and the people you support are impacted by the climate and nature crises now.

As a funder, when we ask non-environmental charities about the climate and nature crises, we find that many are struggling for the capacity to research and assess the implications beyond the need to decarbonise their own operations. Everyone’s Environment is addressing that need.
