Our Team

“I feel very lucky to work with this amazing team, changing the world one GIYer at a time”

“GIY is a unique melting pot of creativity, innovation, ambition and social impact – I couldn’t work anywhere else!”

“Growing food is the answer to most of life’s problems.”

“It is a privilege to be part of such a progressive & inspirational social enterprise”

“Take a bite and I’m positive you will be shouting out how scrumdiddlyumptious this wonderveg is.” Roald Dahl, The BFG

“It’s hugely energising to work on attracting funds to help GIY’s amazing work towards 100m GIYers – all for a healthier people and planet.  I believe that the philanthropic community can be a massive catalyst and driver of this much needed transformative social change”.

“In short, I connect people to problem solve.”

“Seeing real change, like how children growing cress in a classroom can lead them to live more sustainably with a better understanding of food, is why I work for GIY.”

“I joined GIY because their mission and values align with my own – it is somewhere I can work towards creating a happier and more sustainable world.”

“I love that my role at GIY focuses on sharing the GIY message, which aligns with my own beliefs: food matters – not only for the health of our planet, but our own health and well-being too.”

“Food literacy and food empathy in our communities: that is a GIY sustainable food future.”

“Creating long lasting connections between communities and nature is the most fulfilling aspect of marketing”

“Learning is a life-long endeavour, and GIY demonstrates that no one is too young or too old to grow their own food, adopt more sustainable habits, and make a difference.”

“What appeals to me about GIY is their commitment to building a sustainable workplace – as well as a sustainable food system.”

“Sustainability has always been the driving force behind my career, from energy to global resources and food, and I’m so excited to be a part of GIY and to be surrounded by likeminded people.”

“I decided to try growing some veg at home, but had little clue where to begin. I found some clips from GROW COOK EAT and that led me to GIY. The more I learned about GIY the more I loved the ethos.”

“It is a gift to work with such a passionate team, supporting folks to grow not just food, but community. GIY reminds me we are connected and each have potential to grow”

“No day is the same working for GIY in the People & Culture team. Whatever you’re working on, you know that when you finish for the day you are contributing to something bigger than yourself”
