Youngsters across the TYNE VALLEY will be able to follow in the footsteps of Greta Thunberg by becoming ‘green influencers’ after funding from The Ernest Cook Trust. The Northumberland Wildlife Trust have been able to benefit from the grant to employ a ‘Green Mentor’ who will work with young people to create a series of social action projects within their local area. Open to children aged 10-14, the Green Influencers Scheme has been created using the #iwill Fund and has been backed by both The National Lottery Community Fund and the Department of Culture Media & Sport. The project has seen 36 host organisations across the country selected to host 40 Green Mentors funded for by the grants to help lead their local community to protect the environment and tackle climate change.
