About Us
WHO WE ARE
Wild Earth Movement is an environmental not -for-profit organisation with a strong focus on waste and plastic pollution. We are based in the West Midlands, UK.
​​
We are community led, and by that we mean that, what people want, we try to deliver. We host all sorts of events, sessions, workshops and activities around the West Midlands and beyond.
From community litter picking events to kids birthday parties, we really want to make it our mission to include everybody we can, in some way or another. We are passionate about equality and diversity and want to break down whatever barriers stand in the way of people being able to connect with nature and our planet.
​
Throughout the year we host multiple plastic free, sustainable markets that supports smaller businesses. These events take place throughout the West Midlands and attract 1000's of visitors.
​
If you're interested in learning more, please come along to one of our upcoming events, connect with us on social media or contact us.
We rely on bookings, fundraising events and grants to keep this movement moving so please do support us by sharing our information, joining us for a workshop, fundraising for us, following us on social media or letting us know if your workplace offer funding opportunities.

Lastly if you love what we do, please consider joining the team! Don't be shy, get in touch!
Meet The Team
Hannah
FOUNDER
Lover of the ocean, animals, up cycling and really old things! You'll find Hannah at most of our sessions, pop ups and workshops gushing over flowers, tin cans or pebbles. She's a workaholic, sleeps, eats and dreams all things Wild Earth Movement. Ever since she was little she's wanted to be a marine biologist! She's easily recognisable by her vast array of cool recycled leggings. AKA (by some) as "Lady Earth".
Becky
Creative facilitator
Becky is patient, calm and great with little ones. She has a degree in early years and loves to be outdoors. She's always at the beach or in the woods teaching her family about looking after the planet. She works many of our pop up weekend events and is a real gem in the WEM team.
Glenn
Volunteer
"My names Glenn I'm the old man of the organisation!
It's the outdoor life for me. I love birdwatching and sitting out in the fresh air. My tasks at WEM are to do all the dirty jobs like washing up, glueing, cutting out shapes - I'm a very busy man!"
