B&Q supports Ellen MacArthur’s new sustainable charity

B&Q visited the Houses of Parliament recently to show their support of Dame Ellen MacArthur and the Ellen MacArthur Foundation.

The Foundation aims to ‘work with education and business to inspire people to re-think, re-design and build a sustainable future’ and B&Q aims to help local communities to become more sustainable.

As one of the four Founding Partners of the Foundation –

‘B&Q is working together with the Ellen MacArthur Foundation on a number of case studies aimed at communicating how re-thinking and re-designing our homes can have a huge impact on energy efficiency and ultimately sustainability. One of the longer term goals of the partnership is, together with young people, to re-think the way products are currently made and disposed of.’
