Testimonials

"The morning paddle boarding with my colleagues was fantastic; Lizzie’s briefing was clear and it was a great way to learn a new skill and to do something different, all whilst helping with a worthy cause. The work of Lizzie and Planet Patrol is so important, and they are delivering their message in such a fun and creative way. I have always been mindful of my impact on the environment and that there are things I could do better, but despite good intentions, I have never taken the step. The Planet Patrol pick up was very impactful (so much rubbish picked up in such a short amount of time), and it was the push I needed to start making small changes in my daily life that will hopefully make a bigger difference. The app is easy to use, and the data logged is hopefully going to help make a long term difference. Now I return from my dog walks with lots of rubbish to log!"

"Enthusiastic Avison Young employees took to the Paddington Basin on stand up paddleboards to spend the morning clearing the water of litter. A fantastic time was had by all, with the activity providing a fun team building opportunity as well as being a great way to get back in touch with nature. We were saddened to witness the horrendous amount of litter clogging London’s waterways and all felt a sense of achievement when we realised how much litter we had managed to clear throughout the morning. Lizzie and her team do a brilliant job raising awareness of the plastic and other litter polluting our waterways. These paddle boarding sessions are such a brilliant opportunity to have a positive impact on the environment."

"Thank you for the hugely engaging virtual lunch & learn session – our colleagues were super inspired by the level of insight and welcomed all the practical tips to take small steps towards a more sustainable lifestyle! We are excited for what the future holds for Planet Patrol and what we can do as individuals and a company!"
