Green Hub
In association with the launch of our new Green products; our Enviro Saver and Retro Fit Mortgage, we have created an eco-focused space to help us all become a little more environmentally conscious.
Learn moreWelcome to Saffron Building Society's Green Hub
Our vision is that as a society and throughout our communities, we can all take small steps to reduce our carbon footprint and reach a greener future for everyone. The Hub is designed to provide broad but detailed information covering the diverse ways that we can make eco-friendly changes to our lives, from utilising our online resources to help reduce emissions, to getting the whole family involved in challenges and activities that create environmentally friendly households!
We are believers in the power of community and we are confident in our collective ability to make a difference. So, with the help of our Green Hub, we hope you feel inspired to take those first few steps to a greener future, today.
Wilderness Foundation UK
In line with Saffron Building Society’s Green vision, every year we ask our members and the public, which environmental charity they would like our Enviro Saver to support. After another hugely positive response, the Wilderness Foundation was chosen to receive a lump sum donation, due to be paid in June 2022.
The Wilderness Foundation UK harnesses the power of the wilderness and nature to transform vulnerable lives and empowers people, in return, to conserve nature. Each year we work with over 6,000 people, including some of the hardest-to-reach and most disadvantaged young people and adults in society. We offer nature based therapy programmes that catalyse transformational personal growth and change, building longer term resilience and independence in communities, alongside our conservation educational work including climate change and sustainability programmes. All of our projects and programmes provide direct support, connecting people to nature, benefitting mental and physical wellbeing and to teach people to care for nature into the future, providing education, tools, strategies and techniques.
