The Green Desk

It's always the hardest place to start, the beginning! new friends, new relationships and probably right at this moment for me, a new job. I have just started work at a fantastic company called the Green Desk. Briefly just before this, I had the fantastic blessing to come to know an amazing lady called Binky, who started me on a more personal journey, the start of self awareness and belief, the start of a new way of thinking for me. This lovely lady put me in touch with Yasmin and Bruce, the founders of The Green Desk and once again back to the start....The beginning!
The Green desk: A Social Enterprise that raises money by selling recyclable, environmentally friendly office supplies, it then reinvests its money to charity, two in particular.... Woman's Aid and the UN billion tree campaign. Totally brilliant and an incredibly generous concept, one which works...Well!!!
This got me thinking and trust me I do that a lot! I guess we all try to do our bit for the enviroment wherever we can, some a lot more than others. Some of us separate our rubbish from the card and paper to the plastic, some donate money, others donating time to specific green issues, I guess we all try to do our bit but do any of do enough? honestly now!!! I think we can all do a little more. However since starting my work here at the Green desk, I realise its more than what we do physically!! being "Green" isnt just all about separating rubbish or donations etc its about a feeling...... A unique simple thing that can truly change everything.
Its caring enough to want to make the differance. It starts now.......................................................
