We’re inviting businesses to join us in a new corporate partnership scheme to help a charity develop children's skills and knowledge around environmental issues.
10 October, 2024
We’re excited to be backing a new charity initiative to tackle environmental issues, using science to spark curiosity.
Wonderseekers empower children to change the world by making science opportunities accessible to all young people.
The charity works with schools, businesses and communities to nurture children’s skills and knowledge, to help them understand and respond to the pressing issues of climate change and biodiversity loss.
As well as running Winchester Science Museum, Wonderseekers provides a range of activities to bring science to life in the classroom and at home.
To help support its work, Wonderseekers has invited businesses to come together in a new corporate partnership scheme, the Curiosity Collective, with NOSY among those to sign up.
"For us, it’s an exciting opportunity to demonstrate our values by taking action and contributing to a better future for children and for nature,” said NOSY founder Matt Greg.
"It's very easy to feel overwhelmed by the state of our planet. We sit back and tell ourselves our efforts don’t matter and we do nothing, though we owe it to our children to try.
"Wonderseekers is an initiative that is switching mindsets from passive negativity to action, engaging young minds with the natural world in a fun and imaginative way.
"We’re really pleased to have joined the Curiosity Collective, joining other like-minded businesses committed to supporting Wonderseekers’ mission.
"I believe every business can help the next generation to have a better future and I encourage you to join us."
Businesses keen to join are invited to make a £1,000 donation to Wonderseekers towards its new educational science and nature experiences.
This will enable the charity to continue to empower children to take action, as we seek a better future for our people and our planet.
