As the climate crisis intensifies, the Department of Education has set a groundbreaking requirement for all primary schools to implement a Climate Action Plan by September 2025. 

This landmark mandate emphasises the vital role of schools and educators in fostering sustainability and equipping the next generation to tackle climate change. 

With this in mind, Corsham-based climate education charity, Wicked Weather Watch (WWW), is inviting UK businesses to join in driving meaningful climate education by sponsoring its workshops and virtual explorer visits to ensure climate education is accessible to all.

Sponsorship will additionally provide an opportunity to: 

  • Demonstrate ESG Leadership: Showcase commitments to environmental sustainability and education 
  • Inspire Change: Support schools in meeting their Climate Action Plan requirements while empowering future climate champions 
  • Enhance Brand Visibility: Align with impactful educational initiatives that resonate with local communities across the UK. 

Featured Opportunities 

  • Interactive Climate Change Workshops: Tailored to curriculum needs, these sessions immerse students in Arctic ecosystems, climate science, and sustainability. Through hands-on activities, students gain knowledge and tools to make a difference
  • Talks by Arctic and Polar Explorers: Featuring Polar explorers including trailblazing explorer and citizen scientist Hilde Fålun Strøm and world record-breaking Arctic explorer and WWW Founder Sir David Hempleman-Adams who will share their stories of expeditions, and the visible impact of climate change they have witnessed. 

Why This Matters 

Over 60% of young people are worried about climate change. For many, a visit from WWW is their first educational encounter with climate change. Wicked Weather Watch strives to ensure these sessions are positive, empowering, and solution-focused, recognising the growing concern of eco-anxiety among children. By equipping pupils with a sense of purpose and an understanding of their role in protecting our planet, WWW aims to inspire a future generation of compassionate, environmentally aware individuals who can make a meaningful difference. 

About Wicked Weather Watch 

Wicked Weather Watch is a pioneering charity dedicated to delivering accessible and impactful education to hundreds of primary schools across the UK. WWW’s workshops and explorer talks bring the Arctic to life, teaching students about the science and impact of climate change in a positive and uplifting way. 

Sir David Hempleman-Adams, Founder of Wicked Weather Watch

Sir David Hempleman-Adams, Founder of Wicked Weather Watch said, “We hear about global warming on the news, but it can be difficult for people to fully appreciate the threat until it directly impacts them. I’ve seen massive changes since 1982 when I first went to the Arctic. The planet is ours to look after. Children think about this from a very early age, which is why Wicked Weather Watch is so important.” 

Rhianna Davies-Smith, Director of Wicked Weather Watch said, “Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time. Now is the time to act and work together for a greater impact. As the heart of our communities, schools have the power to create change and cause a ripple effect of action. Please consider supporting our work today to help empower the next generation.”
