We’ve secured support from Rightmove to keep canals alive
We’re delighted to announce a new partnership with Rightmove as part of the UK’s largest property platform’s sustainability initiative, Go Greener.
Rightmove is pledging £50,000 to support our Environmental Fund which supports environmental projects to protect and enhance its navigable waterways across England and Wales, ensuring cleaner, greener spaces for people and nature. As part of the partnership, Rightmove employees will also be active in their own communities by volunteering their time to help make the Trust’s work possible.
An exciting partnership
Maggie Gardner, our fundraising director, comments: “We’re excited to partner with Rightmove, whose sustainability strategy aligns with our vision of living waterways that transform places and enrich lives. Nine million people live within a 15-minute walk of a canal, and working with Rightmove will help us make a real impact for nature and local communities near where people live.”
Jennier Barker, Chief People Officer at Rightmove, comments: “We’re incredibly proud to partner with the Canal & River Trust through our Go Greener initiative. At Rightmove we’re committed to protecting the environment and helping everyone work towards a more sustainable future. This partnership allows us to contribute to the protection of vital green and blue spaces, which bring so much value to communities across England and Wales. Our employees are keen to volunteer and get involved, supporting the charity’s incredible work, and helping to create cleaner, greener waterways for everyone to enjoy.”
