The EQ Foundation is committed to helping donors find really effective charities, especially among mid-sized organisations that are growing strongly with highly motivated management. At our next event we’ve invited three leaders of charities with an environmental focus to come and tell us both about the issues that they are trying to solve and their programmes.

Laura Winningham is Founder & CEO of City Harvest, set up in 2015. Last year they collected over 1,000 tonnes food approaching its sell by date from supermarkets and food manufacturers so it can be distributed to charities providing meals for the homeless and others in need.

David Jordan, a former executive director of the Environment Agency, is chair of Excellent Development. They help local communities in Africa to build Sand Dams which can transform the availability of water, both for drinking and farming.

Hugo Tagholm is CEO of Surfers against Sewage and he’s on a mission not only to reduce pollution on our beaches by 50% but also to educate schoolchildren of the evils of plastic pollution.

An optional £25 charity donation will be matched by the EQ Foundation. So by selecting this ticket option, not only will you be learning more about pressing problems – you’ll also be generating £50 of donations for the charities involved.

Join us for what should be a fascinating evening.
