ECOllective is returning to BCP this July for its third chapter of green networking at a magical new venue. They’ll be at Grounded Community’s Secret Garden in Boscombe on Thursday 27th July at 3pm. ECOllective offers a space for ethical businesses, charities, and Non Governmental Organisations (NGOs) to connect, share best practice, collaborate and communicate.
Founded by Warrior Agency – an ethical PR Agency – ECOllective’s third meeting will host three knowledgeable guest speakers thriving in the world of sustainability, and provide a place for meaningful conversations, connecting eco brands for a more sustainable future. Lizzie McManus, founder of Warrior Agency said: “We can’t wait to host our third ECOllective event, coming to a beautiful new venue with a twist. Our July event will be a completely ‘powered down’, outdoors event, which will really enhance the natural beauty of the venue and help to minimise the carbon footprint of the event! We’ve got some amazing speakers lined up and it’s been really encouraging to see so many businesses and groups from our community coming together to share their passions for a more eco conscious way of doing business.”
The first speaker of the day is Michael French, the vision behind Grounded Community, a charity in Boscombe that teaches people to grow their own food and feed the community. Michael will be talking about the journey of Grounded and how the 10 paid staff and over 100 volunteers work regularly to make their goals a reality.
Following Michael is Sian Louise, Founder of Obvs Skincare, a multi-award-winning skincare brand that specialises in effective, natural and organic solutions for problem skin. Sian will be sharing her brand journey and her experience of becoming a sustainable brand.
The day’s final speaker is John Burton, Founder and Creative Director of Pretty Clever Studio, Dorset’s first, and currently only, B Corp design studio who will walk us through how to balance branding purpose and profit.
Following talks from the guest speakers, there will be time and space for guests to ask questions directly to the speakers as well as informal networking with refreshments and delicious canapés made by fabulous holistic chef, Patricia Nunes.
Lizzie added “The last two events have been such a huge success, and we can’t wait to see how ECOllective continues to grow. Tickets are only £10 and we’re continuing to offer 50% off for charities too so hopefully it’s affordable and accessible to all types of organisations across the conurbation and beyond!”
ECOllective’s third chapter will be held at Grounded Community’s beautiful Secret Garden nestled in a corner of Boscombe, from 3pm – 5pm on Thursday 27th July.
