The initiative, which sees allplants match a meal for every donation made by its community, will deliver nearly 1,500 nutritious allplants meals to families facing holiday hunger on their doorstep in North London. Customers can donate the plant-based meals that are delivered to struggling families through allplants’ partnership with [The Felix Project](https://thefelixproject.org/), and [City Harvest](https://www.cityharvest.org.uk/). For every meal a customer donates, allplants will match it. Last year, across October half-term and the Christmas holidays allplants donated over 11,000 meals to children who are eligible for free school meals. --- > We’re thrilled to join [@WoodlandTrust](https://twitter.com/WoodlandTrust?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw), > the UK’s largest woodland conservation charity, as a Carbon Partner🌳 > Our £10m > donation will boost biodiversity & climate resilience, while our people help to > create new native woodland💛Read more: [https://t.co/AiJqoCLy9t](https://t.co/AiJqoCLy9t) > [#ClimateReady](https://twitter.com/hashtag/ClimateReady?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) > [pic.twitter.com/4dyIHrUBPn](https://t.co/4dyIHrUBPn) > > ## Advertisement > > [⌊Posthub advert.

The projects will occur across the UK at a number of Woodland Trust sites including three ‘Hero’ sites: Green Farm, Norfolk, Snaizeholme, and Smithills, Lancashire. The donation is part of Aviva’s £100 million commitment to remove carbon from the atmosphere using nature- based solutions and builds on the donations it has made in the last six months to the [Wildlife Trusts](https://www.aviva.com/newsroom/news-releases/2023/02/aviva-helps-restore-rare-native-british-rainforests/) in the UK and [The Nature Trust](https://www.aviva.com/newsroom/news-releases/2022/10/aviva-ireland-provides-5-million-euros-of-fnding-to-the-nature-trust/u) in the Republic of Ireland. --- ![](https://wfay6x.infiniteuploads.cloud/2023/02/Quaker-Oats-x-Groundwork.jpg) #### Quaker Oats partners with Groundwork to support warm hubs across the UK Quaker Oats has today announced a new initiative with the charity [Groundwork](https://www.groundwork.org.uk/), to support over 45 ‘warm hubs’ in local communities across the UK. The move aims to support people in need by providing warm, safe spaces at designated locations such as community centres, libraries, religious centres and other local facilities. As part of the initiative, Quaker will provide support and warm porridge to over 45 warm hubs, to help with running costs and ensure that they can stay open this winter. The ‘warm hubs’ are run by Groundwork and its network of charities nationwide, which encourages community action to tackle poverty and protect the environment. In addition to providing warmth and drying facilities, the hubs offer advice and services to help people manage their bills, alongside opportunities to socialise and take part in physical activity. --- > 🧬 We think Women in STEM are cool and we think you will too. > 🧪 Follow our thread > below to meet Meet Ardilla Deneys, [@DrLucyRogers](https://twitter.com/DrLucyRogers?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) > and Ila Jain – three brilliant women who have shattered glass ceilings and made > waves in STEM.[#InspiringGirls](https://twitter.com/hashtag/InspiringGirls?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) > [#STEM](https://twitter.com/hashtag/STEM?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) [#WomeninStem](https://twitter.com/hashtag/WomeninStem?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) > — Inspiring Girls (@Inspiringgirlsf) [February 15, 2023](https://twitter.com/Inspiringgirlsf/status/1625897863602470917?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) #### MetLife Foundation launches two-year partnership with Inspiring Girls International MetLife Foundation’s partnership with [Inspiring Girls International](https://inspiring-girls.com/) is aimed at empowering women of the future by building confidence in young girls and breaking down gender stereotypes in underserved communities through a focus on STEM careers, including here in the UK.
