Eaga Partners

Project: Environment Champions

Eaga’s Environment Champions Network was developed with Global Action Plan, (GAP) establishing a group of Partners to lead on environmental initiatives across the Eaga business.

All Champions received certificated training from GAP to support their knowledge of environmental issues and are active across the Eaga group leading on behavioural change and driving campaigns around energy efficiency.  The success of the network has been borne out by programmes including group wide recycling which has seen tonnes of waste recycled by the Eaga group.

 Project: FutureBuilding: international development

Our award winning programme of international development is now in its third year and over 150 Partners and some of our major stakeholders and suppliers have engaged directly with 3 community projects. Working in partnership with Childreach International and local villagers, we have installed water harvesting systems, improved sanitation facilities, established a farming cooperative, renovated school classrooms and completed a teachers’ accommodation block. During late 2010, a further 60 Partners will take part in our most ambitious programme of development to date. We will be completely rebuilding Lotima Primary School in rural Northern Tanzania, opening the classrooms to over 400 local children for the first time in a decade. 

 Project: Healthy Eating at Work 

Our relationship with Riverford Organic Fruit and Vegetables saw us as the first UK business to take up their organic fruit in the workplace initiative.
Providing free organic fruit to our main offices every week, the scheme provides a healthy alternative to snacks and biscuits and has proved a huge success.
