Becca is an event manager and eco-enthusiast. She loves a bit of window farming and is often found pottering around in her little urban garden. Her passion for all things green started back in primary school where she started a club in the playground called the ‘green team’.
Many years later, after some time spent travelling she returned to the city and struggled to fit back into urban life. This is when the seeds of Green City were sown. Becca wanted to use her experiences to help those living in an urban environment and offer them opportunities to gain the skills and knowledge that could help them live greener and healthier lifestyles.
In 2011, support from UnLtd helped to get the social enterprise off the ground and Green City now works with community groups, businesses, schools, charities and local government. Over the past few years successes include delivering the One Planet Cardiff Festival with Cardiff Council, a collaborative city centre pop up event with The Big Lunch, Shelley Gardens Food Festival and Exchange in Roath - a giant swap shop event. There are some new exciting projects in the pipeline too, including events for Love Food hate waste and Edible Adamsdown.
Becca’s aim is to help grow green people and places within the city and create resilient, happy communities.
