Green Pioneers

If you’re based in West Gorton and have a child aged 14-17 who needs something to do, and a place to connect with people and build their skills for the future, sign them up to our Green Pioneer programme.

As a Green Pioneer, young people learn through both online and in person sessions about environmental issues, how to run their own projects, and at the end they’ll gain an AQA certification to get them started on their greening journey!

Sessions run every Wednesday from 6-8pm at West Gorton Community Park (meeting at the park notice board)

Activities include:

  • Habitat restoration
  • Wellbeing walks
  • Delivering climate projects

And much more!

No need to book, just turn up!
