Welcome to the Sustainability Partners web site.

Our purpose is to help disadvantaged people to improve their lives and to protect the natural environment. We support self-help groups by making small grants and providing training and advice. Our aim is to facilitate the development of the skills and confidence necessary for independence and self-sufficiency. We seek to help people work out what is best for them and to help them to achieve it rather than to impose our own agenda.

"Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It contains within it two key concepts:

NEEDs - in particular the essential needs of the poor, which require overriding priority,

LIMITATIONS - imposed by the environment's ability to meet present and future needs."
