What if children could design a better future with their own hands? That’s exactly what happens in our Lego Sustainable City Workshops, where recycled Lego becomes a powerful tool for teaching climate action, biodiversity, and sustainable design to the next generation. After very successful pilots in Pembrokeshire and Warwickshire, the project is now expanding across the UK.

Each workshop invites around 100 primary school pupils to co-create a giant Lego city built around 8 key sustainability principles. These include creating green spaces & wildlife corridors, sustainable homes, clean transport networks, renewable energy systems, and thoughtful water and waste management solutions. Children also design areas for local food growing and environmentally conscious businesses – imagining what a thriving, planet-positive community could look like. Alongside the fun of building, they explore powerful ideas about climate action, circular economies, and visionary city planning. It’s education that sticks, literally.

What started with £6,000 of recycled Lego and a big idea has now captured the interest of schools, funders, and businesses across the country. But with only one kit in Wales, our next goal is to establish a network of county-based kits, each housed locally and led by trained facilitators to enable more children to take part in this hugely engaging educational experience.

This is where we’re inviting partners to step in and sponsor a Lego kit for your county, directly supporting climate education for thousands of children each year while contributing to positive community engagement, social value, and environmental outcomes.

Alongside the education work, Planet CIC, also specialises in values-led recruitment. With 30 years experience we place candidates within marketing, sales, supply chain, engineering, manufacturing and graduate level roles, helping companies grow whilst creating measurable community and environmental impact in the process.

We believe in long-term partnerships where everyone benefits: schools, communities, businesses, and the planet. Whether through sponsoring a Lego kit or partnering with us for your recruitment needs, there’s a real opportunity to build something extraordinary, one brick at a time.
