Our Greener Borough
Our Greener Borough (OGB) is a council initiative set up to help reduce Wandsworth's environmental impacts. It is made up of individual schemes focusing on schools, residents, businesses and community groups.
What you can do

Have you got a green idea that needs funding?

Are you a Green Champion?
Every year we hold the Green Champions Awards, a competition to find the most eco-friendly schools, groups and individuals in the borough.
Are you a charity or community organisation?

Read the newsletter
OGB News is sent out quarterly to Green Pledgers. It includes information on the latest environmental opportunities and local activity.
Are you a business?
Through Go Green Plus programme small Wandsworth businesses have access to free support to help them go green. Businesses doing their bit to reduce their carbon footprint can enter the annual Green Business Awards.
