Sustainability
Sustainable development goals are important to us, our community members and the organisations we work with.
Our own goals include:
- Reducing food insecurity
- Reducing hunger
- Increasing good health and wellbeing
- Reducing inequalities, especially in rural areas
- Ensuring consumption and production is responsible
- Developing partnerships and working together to achieve goals
We are building on the success of our sustainable food projects that incorporate the principles of circular economy.
Watch this space for The Mildred Trust Community Garden space!
Exciting News!!
The ‘Sprout Squad’ is on its way! Working with Ivy Court Surgery we’ve been lucky enough to secure a space to create a community garden with children and young people.
The space will encompass the principles of eco-therapy aiming to improve mental health and well-being by offering children and young people the chance to get involved in a range of conservation, plant growing and gardening tasks.
In keeping with The Mildred Trusts approach to the environment, our goal is to work with nature, encouraging biodiversity, creating a space that each year requires less effort to maintain and becomes more fertile.
