Charlotte Davies, our first 1% business partner said “As a business owner in Cumbria, I feel a real responsibility to protect the landscapes, communities and wildlife that make this region so special. Through my 1% for the Planet commitment, I chose to support Futureproof Cumbria because their work helps local people and businesses adapt to the challenges of climate change, while building a more sustainable future for our county. It’s rewarding to know that my contribution supports action rooted right here in Cumbria.”
