Insurance that protects you and the planet

Naturesave's commercial activities fund its charity, The Naturesave Trust, which provides grant funding for environmental and conservation projects across the UK. To date we have generated almost £1 million for the Trust.

Helping Business Become More Sustainable

In addition to grant funding the trust also funds a program to help small to medium sized businesses become more sustainable. Working in accordance with Bioregional's 10 One Planet Living principles, an independent chartered environmentalist provides detailed advice and guidance to help businesses reduce the environmental impact of their operations. This program is available free of charge to Naturesave commercial customers.

At Naturesave we aim to limit our environmental impact by making all business journeys via public transport. Since 2009 we have uniquely incentivised our staff to avoid air travel for holidays by offering the additional journey time as paid holiday. In 2019, we became a founder member of the Climate Perks campaign, which seeks to persuade more employers to take up this innovative policy.

Campaigning For Insurance Divestment

When it comes to insurance itself, Naturesave believe the industry, through its underwriting and investments, is uniquely placed change the world for the better through its investment choices and environmental underwriting philosophies. As a business we seek to encourage our insurance partners to recognise the growing demand for fossil fuel divestment and for insurers to cease underwriting fossil fuel projects, that are out of step with the targets of the Paris Agreement on climate change.
