Why is sharing sustainable?

The UK's first sustainable marketplace and supply chain register. Our share platforms are central to each UK county, centralising and sharing regional resources. Membership with us brings more than just business opportunities, we naturally encourage sustainable behaviour, connecting local businesses and charities with their communities, sharing funding and tenders locally, stimulating our local economies, sharing local jobs with local people to reduce local unemployment and so much more.

We are the modern-day membership with impact, ensuring our members can do business with purpose. Their activity has a direct impact on their business, their region, and the planet engaging the masses in contributing to net zero. All shared activity is tracked for our members and captured in their personalised dashboards, to show the reach and impact of their sharing. When members carry out sustainable activity, we track this separately and reward them too!

With climate change so high on the world's agenda, GB Shared harnesses the power of our UK business community to contribute toward climate change and become more sustainable, making the UK a market leader in sustainability. Many of our members are already doing plenty of sustainable activity, they perhaps just don't know it.

GB Shared was designed to connect counties, to naturally encourage sustainable behaviour, to educate, signpost, track and reward it, gently moving our members toward global sustainable accreditation for a commercial and competitive advantage. With out planet in crisis, government spend weighted on a businesses' sustainable standing, it's more important that we ALL become a little more sustainable and contribute to making our planet a better place for future generations.

A united approach to climate change....

Everyone can get involved in sharing to help with climate change, all you need is access to the internet.

Our unique platforms are there for everyone, to encourage equality, sharing of knowledge, resources and opportunities. By sharing, we allow everyone to see everything. Just by using our platforms, you help local businesses, either through your views of their content or by applying for their jobs, properties, special offers, events and anything else they share.

For them, they get the 'feel good' of giving back, as well as filling their jobs with local talent, filling their events, improving their reach, growing their connections and accessing shared opportunities in their region.

Sharing by region helps keep it local, stimulating economies, reducing deprivation, unemployment, carbon outputs and embedding social values. Sharing digitally, means less carbon too, for every hour our members are online, they're not in their cars, they're more productive, and operating locally, ethically and sustainably.

Sharing also allows you to leave a legacy for future generations, to connect with charities, education and other businesses.... together we are stronger.

Choose your county...

GB Shared is on a mission to connect our country in the most sustainable way possible.

There’s no doubt you can have the most sustainable impact by joining your region first, but you are then welcome to join other areas, either by county, by region or nationally.

By selecting a county from our UK map, you can see it's shared content. Each region needs a minimum of 100 businesses willing to share before it officially launches, so if you’re county isn’t open yet, why not pledge your support, register your interest and share it with someone else!

Share to grow, share to help, share to impact...
