Our Ambassador Graduation Weekend 2023
In 2023, a group of Ambassadors went camping to celebrate the end of our year of mentoring with Action for Conservation (AFC).
Saluting our Sisters this Black History Month
Why is it that few Black environmental activists are remembered or showcased compared to their white counterparts?
Youth Ambassador Cayla interviews AFC’s Morgan!
I wrote this entry for the Black Women in History “Saluting Our Sisters” because I wanted to honor the many Black women throughout the history of conservation work.
Bringing Back Black Oats
Oats would certainly have been grown on the Penpont estate since medieval times, read this blog to learn more about how we’re bringing them back!
Hope for the future
There are so many amazing, passionate people working around the clock to save our planet and share that passion with the next generation.
Make a change today

Young people are active participants in environmental change!
At the beginning of 2023, the AFC team had the privilege of working with a small and wonderful group of young people from Off the Record, a mental health charity based in the South West.
Sowing the seeds for a fair, sustainable world 🌻
Working with the land and creating growing spaces (even if it’s on your windowsill) is a relatively underrated but absolutely essential part of the solution to the environmental issues we face today.
