After working with nature: 90% of schoolchildren felt they learned something new about the natural world. 84% felt that they are capable of new things when they try. 79% felt that the experience could help their schoolwork. Outdoor space is a major priority for schoolchildren - especially in city boroughs: providing access to outdoor education, significantly reducing the impact of air pollution?and increasing local biodiversity… Plus growing food for the school kitchens! As part of their #GreenerFutures Westminster investment programme: Grosvenor gathered over 180 employee volunteers for this year’s #TheBigHelpOut2024. Over a remarkable few months, they have created vibrant outdoor spaces for five Westminster primary schools: St Mary’s Bryanston Square, St Gabriels Primary, St Vincent's Primary, Essendine Primary and the St Marylebone CoE Bridge School. During this initiative,?830 metres of wood was loving transformed into flower beds, planters and outdoor seating. Food and plants were cultivated, outdoor areas painted, facilities prepared, enough soil to fill half the Trafalgar Square fountains was installed - and an orchard was created! Over the last three years, Grosvenor have partnered with us at Groundwork London to help deliver green initiatives in Westminster and create jobs for more than 60 people. We are proud to provide the tasks, materials, tools and ecological expertise to bring their green space goals to fruition.

More than 800 square metres of VicTrack-owned land in the heart of Brunswick has been transformed into a high production urban farm, where The Big Umbrella Foundation grows?fresh produce to go into 700 meals served to people experiencing food insecurity or homelessness each week. The farm was made possible through a VicTrack community lease that enables The Big Umbrella Foundation to put the previously underused railway land to good use – bringing our assets to life. Watch The Big Umbrella Foundation’s Victoria Wilson explain how their long-term partnership with VicTrack is bringing real benefit to people who need it. Earlier this year a team of our employees pitched in to prepare meals at The Big Umbrella Foundation’s Brunswick Emergency Food Relief Centre and served them at Federation Square as part of the Big Umbrella Foundation’s corporate volunteering program. We support our people to give back to the community by providing five days of volunteer leave each year.
