Get involved
OAK Garden has seen the growing demand for electricity optimisation and sustainable education in schools across the UK. With the energy crisis in tow, and climate anxiety in children rising, we know the solution is to act, educate, and inspire.
We need your help to deliver our programmes, from electricity optimisation and green education to sustainability upgrades and other inspiring green projects in the education sector.
Donate
There is no cost for state-funded schools for our services, we don’t ask them for any money. This means that we need to find our funding elsewhere. We want to support teachers and other staff every step of the way, whether that is through our Garden Boxes or through hands-on energy saving recommendations — we can’t do it without the generous support of councils, corporates, and generous individuals.
Any donation is greatly appreciated. No amount is too small and all contributions go directly to building our children’s green future.
