The Greater Manchester Environment Trust
The GMET is a registered charity that channels green finance into Greater Manchester.
We work with grassroots groups, corporate supporters and a network of partners across the city region to make Greater Manchester greener for all.
We fund green community projects through our Green Spaces Fund and the Renew Community Fund.
We also work with organisations to help them meet environment-focused aims, including Corporate Social Responsibility, Social Value, Biodiversity Net Gain commitments and Carbon Offsetting.
