Our Charitable Donations

One Percent for the Planet

At Innovation Visual we are passionate about wildlife and its conservation. As part of our commitment, we donate a minimum of 1% of our entire turnover to environmental causes each year, as members of the 1% for the Planet Organisation. We do this from the company profits, so it does not affect the prices we charge to customers for our work.

Carbon Offsets to Alleviate Poverty

COTAP tackles climate change and global poverty by using money from personal and business offsetting. They are a certified environmental partner of 1% for the Planet and use donations in various global initiatives to both combat global warming and support economic improvement. Our team is proud to support the wider global community through our offsetting.

Hobbs Nature Reserve Trust

This charity was formed in 2022 to protect land with important geological and botanical features. Previously managed by Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust, this deserted quarry is home to rare plants and was under threat of abandonment until locals stepped in to conserve the area.

David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation

Innovation Visual proudly chose the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation (DSWF) as the first charity we supported after joining 1% for the Planet in 2012. David Shepherd was a renowned artist and environmental advocate admired by our founder, Joanna.

DSWF funds vital projects in Africa and Asia to protect critically endangered mammals. They support anti-poaching and conservation efforts that help species like pangolins, painted dogs, tigers, snow leopards, and rhinos.
