Greensider Foundation
We're a platform that helps water startups and SMEs find specialised talent.
The UK water industry is heading for a crisis - and it's about people, not just infrastructure. 27% of workers are retiring in the next decade, only 8% are under 24, and over a third of skilled jobs can't be filled. Meanwhile, we desperately need 30,000 new water jobs by 2030 as £104 billion flows into infrastructure.
Climate change means we need better desalination, smarter water monitoring, more efficient treatment - all the stuff that small water tech companies are actually building. But these innovative companies are struggling to hire. Hiring costs are hefty but results aren't guaranteed. They also have to compete against other more 'glamorous sectors' as the water industry has an image problem. Young engineers think "water" means boring pipes and pumps, not cutting-edge climate solutions.
We're building a community where water companies and talent actually want to be. Companies post jobs completely free, removing financial barriers for innovative startups. Through targeted outreach and planned content (podcasts, newsletters, company features), we're making water tech careers appealing to young professionals who want meaningful work solving climate problems.
You'll gain real business skills while solving a crisis most people don't even know exists. Whether you're doing outreach to water startups, creating content that reshapes an industry's image, or building community engagement strategies, every task directly connects innovative companies with talent who want to solve water scarcity.
The best part? These skills transfer everywhere. Business development, content strategy, community building - you'll leave with experience that applies to any startup or scale-up. Plus, you'll understand how an essential industry actually works, giving you insights most people never get.
Join us if you want hands-on experience building something that matters, while developing skills that'll serve you anywhere.

A New Icon
We level the playing field for athletic sponsorships enabling more athletes to reach their full potential.
Large brands and agencies dominate the sports sponsorship marketplace. As a result, many athletes, including female, disabled, and LGBTQ+ athletes from various ethnicities or lower socioeconomic backgrounds, are often left without sponsors and access to what they need to reach their potential.
In addition, many sponsors need help finding and developing a genuine connection with an athlete, which leads to issues connecting with their audiences. There is no way to search for sponsors or athletes directly without involving costly agencies. Transparency and self-management are crucial in democratising the marketplace. The opportunity to make this sector more equitable is now.
We have built an innovative self-managed athlete-sponsorship platform focused on unique connections between sponsors and athletes. Sponsors, athletes, and fans can sign-up. Athletes create a public profile page with information and media about themselves. Sponsors create campaigns which athletes & teams search and apply for. In addition, all users can follow athletes who post on our social feed. Negotiation steps are in-built before the contract is confirmed; secure payment is taken for the sponsorship amount and held securely. As milestones are reached, an athlete's payment percentage is released, protecting both sides. our latest build has developed our campaign area, where marketing assets are now auto-generated in the brand and athlete voice through AI and ML implementation. Once a campaign has gone live, there is now a dashboard that shows its engagement success and delivers the data points you would expect to understand for each campaign alongside a social value calculation that maps to the SDGs and other CSR markers.

Would you like to support the unpaid carers of people with mental health issues? We are looking for an enthusiastic, caring person to join our management committee.
Kingston Mental Health Carers’ Forum is a small but active charity that represents unpaid mental health carers (ie Family, Friends) in the Royal Borough of Kingston. Local statutory services recognize our collective voice and campaigning role and actively engage us in policy making and service development.
Our current team - all volunteers - includes people with professional skills and lived experience of being mental health carers. Because of this we understand the issues facing carers, for them personally and their loved ones. We provide 1:1 advice and guidance, and encourage self-empowerment.
We hold a monthly support group and keep members up to date on current mental health provision. We believe that supporting carers’ wellbeing will also help their loved ones, aiming for the best possible mental health.
We want to grow our membership and develop our services. As a volunteer with the relevant professional skills, lived experience and a strong motivation to serve our local community, you can contribute to shaping the future direction of KMHCF.
As we have no paid staff, we are particularly keen to hear from those who can also offer to take hands-on responsibility for moving the development of our service forward. This might indicate an applicant who offers professional skills, but is now retired and would like to serve the community.
If you have expertise to offer, plus an enthusiasm to serve Carers who can often feel isolated and bewildered in their role, we’d like to hear from you.
