2025 Community Programmes

Banner with text 'Green Leader Scheme' and 'OVO Foundation' with hands holding leaves against a green background.

We’re mega excited to launch the Green Leader Scheme, which uses traditional crafts to empower 16-25-year-olds facing mental health challenges to become local climate leaders. Following our 8-week ‘Woodcraft and Wellbeing’ programme (connecting young people with green spaces through outdoor craft activities) sign-ups onto the scheme will design and embark on their own unique ‘Green Mission’ in 2025, helping nature in ways that resonate with them.

With ongoing support, from concept to completion, through BTC, we hope our Green Leaders' journeys help them find their voice, develop their strengths and step into collaborative environmental action.

Watch this space!

The Green Leader Scheme is open to all young people aged 16-25 facing mental health struggles.
