‘To change the world, throw a better party’

Showponies kicked off their collaboration with grassroots climate movement Take the Jump in a pop-up in Waltham Forest, with locals welcomed in to join the fun and explore what life beyond consumerism can look and feel like

Each day highlighted one of the shifts, with local businesses and community groups invited in to share their work and experiences - leading up to a fabulous finale of cocktails, DJs and cabaret on the Saturday. The event is planned to be the first of many all around the country, with the Showponies and Take the Jump team planning a step-by-step guide to help people create similar parties in their neighbourhood.

40% of those attending were new to thinking about environmental action, and the feedback was that: 75% felt more ready to make sustainable changes in their own lives, 80% felt more powerful and hopeful about the future.
