Green Directory

A directory of green shoots in Leytonstone! Businesses, initiatives and groups in Leytonstone making a real effort to be green.
​
There are lots of people in Leytonstone trying to change the way we live, work and shop so that we can reduce carbon emissions and have a less harmful or, even better, a positive effect on the local and wider environment, and on our local community.
​
It's not always easy, though, to find out what is available. So, we decided to put together a list to help all of us - local businesses and residents - on that journey.
​
All of the groups and businesses listed are going the extra mile to have a positive impact, for example by...

​

• reducing waste - upcycling, repurposing, repairing, redistributing and recycling.

• moving away from single-use plastic, or more mindfully sourcing raw materials and packaging.

• conserving energy and/or using renewable energy sources.

• reducing transport miles by sourcing locally.

• supporting the local community in some way
