Little ideas that make a big difference

Inspo for your Action Day

This year, our focus for Action Day is on the environment, stuck for ideas for your Action Day? Take a look at our suggestions for what you could do.

You could...

  • Clean up your local park
  • Pick up litter during a walk
  • Plant a tree or some bee-friendly flowers
  • Switch to paperless mail
  • Educate others on how to reduce their food waste
  • Organise a beach clean
  • Speak up about sustainability

If none of these feel quite right for you, but you still want to do something, that’s all good. Take a few minutes to think about what matters to you most. How do you think you could make a difference?

Remember, it doesn’t have to be a big deal. Sometimes it’s the smallest gesture that means the most.

How about...

  • Supporting a local business by shouting about them on socials, or buying something from them
  • Running an errand for a friend, family member or neighbour who feels a bit vulnerable right now
  • Giving out thank you notes to brighten up your loved ones’ days
  • Having a cupboard clear out and donating clothes you don’t wear anymore to a clothing bank or charity shop
  • Putting on a virtual quiz for your friends and family and asking for a donation to take part

And whatever you decide to do…
