‘Get Sharing’ is the final part of the Green Ambassadors 4 Youth challenge where we ‘tell others’ what we have done and why. By sharing we hope to inspire others, but also give them some of our great ideas for taking action in our daily lives to reduce our impact on the planet and care for our wonderful world.

Here are a few of the core programme badges and challenges that provide an opportunity for your young people to communicate in a variety of ways, from tweets and texts, to performance, writing, or film and photography. Anywhere your young people have a voice can be counted towards the Green Ambassadors 4 Youth ‘Get sharing’ challenge.
