INCORPORATION
The charitable company was incorporated on 19 December 2019.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.
Global Goals Centre (CIO) is a charitable incorporated organisation registered with the Charity Commission in England and Wales under charity number 1187048
Risk management
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.
Objectives and Activities
The objects of the CIO are
To advance the education of the public in Bristol and beyond in subjects relating to the following:
sustainable development.
the protection, enhancement and rehabilitation of the environment. the relief of poverty.
conditions of life in socially and economically disadvantaged communities and how those may be improved.
economic growth and urban or rural regeneration and how these things can be achieved in a sustainable manner.
In furtherance of these objects but not otherwise, the trustees shall have power to establish or secure the establishment of an interactive education and visitor centre to educate the public.
In these objects, ‘sustainable development’ means development which meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
Purpose
We are developing an interactive Education and Visitor Centre in Bristol. Groups would move through a series of immersive scenarios and be introduced to the issues and themes around the Global Goals. Hands-on experiences, as well as in-situ decision making will be prioritised. Themes of equality and inclusion will run throughout the scenarios.
Introduction from the Chair of Trustees
The Global Goals Centre will be the first immersive Education and Visitor Centre to bring to life the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, to engage schools and the public to be inspired by and take action for a greener, fairer future. Harnessing the power of new tech and storytelling, the Centre will bring in new audiences and impact learning, behaviour and attitudes to drive systemic change.
A front-facing and free to enter gallery space for community generated art and indoor garden area will act as an inspiration for the Goals and lead to a ticketed ‘journey’ experience, taking school groups and audiences through ‘magic’ portals - through a giant fridge to enter a food scenario, through the wardrobe to experience fast fashion, through the shower to experience life under water and more. The journey will cover all 17 Goals but in a cross-cutting thematic way that relates to real living; climate and equality impacts will run throughout the experience. In each scenario, you will hear a human story and find an element of beauty, astonishment, compassion and some fun!
The experience will include plenty of practical, easy and affordable actions the audience can take – as individuals, as a school, as a community - and who they can challenge to do better!
Partnerships
It seems like the whole of Bristol has welcomed the GGC! We have formed a huge web of contacts from business, the wider community, the councils and education. This has been crucial to developing our inclusive and sustainable vision for the scenarios, and we have drawn on the knowledge and resources of some of those in drawing up our plans for our pop-up Refugee Voices, and for Threads, the fast-fashion online experience both of which are coming this year (see below). Our ‘Bristol 17’ series of short films for COP 26 has measured wide engagement and showcased a number of local initiatives.
The Realities of this year
Since the founding of GGC in 2019, the aim has always been to develop a real-world space for the centre, but the Pandemic has made that ambition unrealistic in the short term. We have taken the opportunity to think deeply about the advantages of web-based interaction, and this has continued to shape our overall vision for the centre. Nevertheless, we continue to strive for an iconic site in Bristol for our bricks and mortar operation. Funding has been challenging, as the major capital investors require definite confirmation of space availability before considering funding. We are currently involved in several major bids for city centre premises going forward.
In the meantime, we’re delighted to have worked with many young people and partners this year to inspire more people to take action for the Global Goals.

Creating inspiring and engaging projects
The Bristol 17 campaign
After a successful bid to Bristol City Council Sustainability Team we were able to plan our Bristol 17 campaign, in partnership with BCC Climate Hub and Bristol 24/7, to engage people with the Global Goals in a countdown to COP 26, build our social media following and inspire action for the Goals.
Our aim was to engage a wide cross-section of people with the Global Goals through impactful media content, to inspire them about what is happening across the city to bring a fairer, greener future, and enable them to play a part in helping reach the Goals
We created a series of 17 short videos, one for each of the Global Goals, highlighting a Bristol hero – from a wide spectrum of society – who is doing something that helps reach that Goal. The content is fun, creative and inspirational and include a way for the viewer to engage with that Goal, and connect with our website and those of our partners, to bring positive change where they are. Examples might include changing behaviour, donating time or money, or sharing a social media ask.
The videos aim to bring hope and positivity to a bleak time of lockdown and be part of the Recovery from Covid as we aim to Build Back Better as a city around the Global Goals through our One City Plan.
The videos were released one per week across all social media and websites leading up to COP-26 in Glasgow (1st-12th November 2021), to engage a wider audience with the climate and inequality agendas and show the relevance of these issues to their own city and their own lives.
We also aim to create a community and legacy from the project that will support follow on campaigns and the development of additional website content.
We built up valuable relationships with 17 local community organisations, to nominate their heroes and amplify their work through the campaign
-
Eastside Community Trust
-
Feeding Bristol
-
Bristol Disability Equality Forum
-
Sustainable Hive
-
Bristol Women’s Voice
-
Frank Water
-
Bristol Energy Network
-
Babbasa
-
Creative Youth Network
-
African Voices Forum
-
Grassroots Communities
-
Bristol Food Network
-
Bristol Misfits
-
City to Sea
-
Avon Wildlife Trust
-
City of Sanctuary
-
Black Seeds Network
This was also our first experience of tendering work and assessing creative proposals, so this project has been a useful learning tool for our team. We selected Tusko agency to work with us to create the films and manage the social media campaign; filming of the heroes and collating supporting information from the nominating community groups took place in MayJune 2021 and the campaign launched on 5th July 2021.
The videos will be shared and amplified by all partners, across Bristol 24/7 media platforms and through our community partners, to reach beyond our current audience and engage a wider spectrum of people to be inspired to act to help reach the Goals.
Website
A new improved website was essential for enabling us to host the Bristol 17 campaign and to support our aim to create a searchable Global Goals Resource Hub for schools, businesses and the public. We put the design and build of the site out for tender and selected Modular in April 2021. Part of the selection criteria included minimising the carbon footprint; our new site will be hosted with Kualo, who use 100% renewable power and energy efficient servers, ensuring that the site produces only 0.74g of CO2 for every page visit, making it cleaner than 58% of web pages tested.
We collated web content and worked with Modular on design and rebranding for the charity through May and June.
The website was completed 30th June to be ready to launch the Bristol 17 campaign on 5th July, and has been a huge boost to our profile.
The Resource Hub will follow in phase 2 in October 2021. From April 2021 we have worked with partners at SDG Alliance and the Climate Change Education Resource Network to compile and collate SDG resources for educators and businesses.
Threads
As a follow-up to our Youth Design Challenges (see below), and the lack of understanding of fast fashion that we encountered in that age group, we worked with our Fashion Advisory
Group (of creatives, educators and subject matter experts) to create a brief for a fast fashion online experience (Threads) which could be used in schools.
The fashion industry produces 10% of global CO2 emissions and uses 1.5 trillion litres of water annually. Poor working conditions in garment factories are widespread. Plastic-based fabrics release millions of microfibres into our oceans on every wash.
We aim to create an immersive and engaging online journey for young people and the public to understand the social and environmental impact of fast fashion and to excite the user about the opportunity for change in the way we consume and make fashion and clothing, and empower them to act for positive change.
We applied for funding from many different Trust funds and were finally successful in winning a WECA Creative Grant at the end of June 2021 and have now commissioned a local creative team after a tendering process in August.
Refugee Voices
The next project we decided to develop was our Refugee Voices scenario. This is partly in response to increasing media focus on migrants coming to the UK, as well as the Black Lives Matter movement and the toppling of the Colston statue in Bristol, which brought racial equality to the fore. In June 2021 we created a project brief and set up an Advisory Group.
We also developed a valuable partnership with Bristol Beacon who agreed to host the installation created during COP 26 in November.
We aim to engage the public and school children with the stories, cultures and contributions of refugees and asylum seekers through direct cultural exchange (workshops), video and audio content, and a physical immersive experience. Through this we aim to inspire a more holistic engagement with the complexities of migration in the 21st century and how issues of inequality, climate change and war have a role to play in this, and to place the human story at the centre of this narrative.
We are consulting with refugees, organisations serving their interests, other stakeholders and schools to assess what kind of experience/material/content will be most effective and innovative in telling the story of asylum seekers and refugees. Through partner organisations such as Bristol Refugee Rights, Borderlands, Community Kitchen and City of Sanctuary we are recruiting artists with lived experience of migration to produce the content.
We are working with young leaders from the Creative Youth Network to explore these issues in movement workshops in schools to enable young people to co-create this project with us.
This project is funded by John James Bristol Foundation, Thresholds and Rank Foundation
Educating and Empowering Children and Young People
Youth Design Challenges
44 young people aged 8-19 took part in 4 workshops from July-Sept 2020, exploring the Global Goals and, specifically, the changes needed in the fashion industry (a highly relevant issue for this age group). In addition, 2 focus groups (c. 45 mins each) with 9-10 year olds were undertaken in order to develop a deeper understanding of young people’s views, thoughts and understandings.
The young people expressed anger and anxiety at the current climate crisis but, whilst they knew a lot about plastics and air quality, they were genuinely surprised by the impact the fashion industry has. We wanted to inform young people of the issues but also, crucially, help them find creative ways of overcoming them, thereby reducing eco-anxiety and directing the anger to positive action. This is a crucial part of our co-design process, involving young people and a range of diverse voices throughout the development of the project.
The Youth Design Challenges were sponsored by the Steve Sinnott Foundation and prizes of sustainable rucksacks provided by Finisterre. The challenge was to design a fun interactive space for people to discover the social and environmental impacts of the fashion industry and also find positive ways to respond.
3 winners and 3 highly commended were selected from the entries. All entrants received a certificate of participation signed by the Mayor of Bristol, thanking them for their involvement.
Groups that participated - Cotham School, Westbury Park school, West of England Centre for Independent Living youth group.
Outcomes
-
Impacts Young people:
-
Enabling young people to learn about urgent global challenges and creatively respond in a positive way
-
Feeling valued and having their voices heard by an external agency and the Awards ceremony audience
Feedback from teachers involved in workshops and focus groups:
-
Raising awareness surrounding the issues of the fast fashion industry and having useful resources signposted for future teaching.
-
Provided examples of creative pedagogies in delivering learning and discussion on these issues.
2. Awards ceremony : increasing profile of Global Goals Centre and celebrating young people
The 3 winners, who received sustainable backpacks from Finisterre, were announced at an online Awards ceremony hosted by Mayor of Bristol, Marvin Rees. Mya-Rose Craig, otherwise known as Birdgirl, who is Patron of the Global Goals Centre, gave the keynote speech, and the Lord Mayor, Cllr Jos Clark concluded the ceremony. Peaches Golding OBE, Lord Lieutenant of Bristol, was also in attendance.The event was attended by over 60 city leaders and partner organisations.
3. Establishing a co-design model
This model of consultation and co-design will continue to inform our way of working in all our projects, to include young voices. This process has enabled us to establish positive relationships with these schools and youth groups who took part as well as 2 further schools (Barton Hill Academy and Cotham Gardens Primary) and 3 youth groups who wanted to take part but couldn’t find a workshop date. We will aim to involve them in the future.
4. Academic outputs
Dr Verity Jones has written two academic papers in draft: ‘Climate Heroes as a way to support young people’s eco-anxiety’ and ‘Botanical Encounter and the climate crisis: considering immersive narrative and young people’s climate fiction’ - to be submitted 2021
5. Global connections established to inform the ongoing project
Dr Verity Jones was invited to present at the international Echoes’ 21 conference (India, Calcutta) in January 2021: ‘Enabling young people’s voice: the Global Goals Centre and the Youth Design Challenge.’ This has initiated a partnership with Disappearing Dialogues and we are now working on developing creative workshops with young people in schools in the wetlands of Calcutta, using Threads as a tool.
Winning Design ideas to potentially be used in the project
-
a climbing wall where you discover a new fact as you climb up
-
using the floor to show key messaging as you step on it
-
an interactive globe; and a mending circle to preserve the life of your clothes.
-
a patch station to design and print a patch on a 3D printer
-
going inside a massive T-shirt to start your journey of discovery about fashion.
Climate Change Survey
In May, GGC and the University of the West of England (UWE Bristol) undertook a survey to ensure youth voices are heard in the climate debate. This new piece of research was based on a survey commissioned in March by Sky News which reported that a quarter of Britons are unwilling to change key habits to tackle climate change. All of the 1,705 people surveyed by Sky/YouGov were aged 18 or over which prompted researcher Dr Verity Jones at UWE Bristol to launch her own survey in partnership with GGC and uncover the views of young people.
Dr Jones said: ‘‘There are over 13 million young people in Britain and while they may not be able to vote, many are extremely concerned about the climate crisis and want to have their voices heard. Surveys such as those carried out by Sky earlier this year completely overlook the views of young people despite the fact that they are the generation who will be most affected by climate change. It is vital that young people are included in data collection around climate change and that their views are considered.’’
A total of 1,170 participants aged 7- 18 were surveyed, answering questions that related to their understanding of climate change, it’s effect on people in the UK and abroad, willingness to make lifestyle changes and who they feel is responsible for tackling climate change. Responses revealed that young people in the UK are prepared to lead the way when it comes to combatting climate change and are more willing than adults to make changes to their lifestyle.
While a majority of young people demonstrated a high amount of knowledge around climate change and recognise the importance of political leaders in mitigating the crisis, they had little knowledge of political meetings such as the G7 summit or COP26 which is informing our work going forwards to enable young people to feel empowered to engage with these key events and to find their voice as global citizens.
The full findings of the survey are published in the Hear our Voice report written by Dr Verity Jones, along with recommendations on how young people’s views can be considered in data collection and how schools can improve education on climate change and alleviate feelings of eco-anxiety among young people. The report will also be used to develop the Global Goals Centre projects and inform our work in schools.
Teacherfest event, June 2020 - How can education help young people contribute to a greener, fairer future?
We organised this online panel discussion with our patron, Dr Mya-Rose Craig, Manu Maunganidze, GGC Education Lead & Dr Julian Brown, University of Bristol chaired by Jenny Foster, GGC Project Lead, as part of Teacherfest 2021. 40 educators and students were in attendance for the live event with more people watching the recording afterwards.
Key questions were:
-
What changes do we need to make to our education system with regard to climate education?
-
What are the barriers to embedding climate education into school timetables?
-
How can Education help Young People contribute to a Greener, Fairer Future?
-
How can we lobby for positive change? What are our ‘asks’?
The panellists came up with concrete changes that are needed to the education system - for both teachers and students - to be able to better understand and develop skills needed for a greener future. When asked to summarise, all panellists spoke about a curriculum for hope; that there are real grounds for optimism and there is great energy and conviction among young people. Teachers need to stand in solidarity with their students in the belief that change needs to happen now.
“The webinar was inspiring, informative and engaging, and in the run up to COP 26, it is hoped that Bristol can take a lead in this important area.” Karen Bark, Colston’s School
Outcomes:
-
A follow- up email was sent to the Head of Education at Bristol City Council with asks that came from the session.
-
A jamboard of resources was created from panellists and participants which was shared with Teacherfest to enable more teachers to bring climate and equality education into their classrooms
Bristol Sings
In June we partnered with Bristol Sings Music and Bristol Beacon to engage young people with climate and stories of hope, much needed during the pandemic. Over 1500 children from 20 schools took part in the online concert, singing songs about valuing nature, and being climate and social action heroes, as well as nominating their own heroes from their school communities.
Jenny Foster, Project Lead, spoke at the concert about the Bristol 17 campaign and told the stories of 3 of our heroes and actions they are taking for climate and equality, and encouraged the young people to think about how they can take action in their school and community.
Young Creative Lead in Residence
In May 2020, we were delighted that Ella Trudgeon, talented illustrator and creative, joined our team in a newly created position as Young Creative Lead in Residence. Ella will be working with us to amplify youth voices in our work by setting up a Young Advisors Group, as well as adding her artistic flair to our upcoming projects. This will enable us to co-design all our projects with young people. Ella says:
“Working with the Global Goals Centre as the Young Creative Lead in Residence is an incredible opportunity to work at the heart of an alliance of Bristol-based organisations advocating for social and climate justice. The Global Goals Centre connects our communities through creativity and collaboration. Working on the Bristol 17 campaign on the lead up to COP-26 is a powerful chance to amplify and celebrate the inspiring action of incredible Bristolians.
Having recently graduated from Rising Arts Agency's BE IT leadership programme, this role continues to challenge me to implement inclusive storytelling, community celebration and radical imagination more deeply into my practise as an artist. Across my time with the Global Goals Centre, I'm looking forward to developing a sustainable strategy for the empowerment of young people.”
Engaging and developing Volunteers
Global Goals Centre aims to offer quality opportunities for volunteering and internships for people from a range of backgrounds and experience.
● Roddy Skinner
Roddy was on furlough from his role as Sustainability Officer at We the Curious during much of 2020 and so he undertook a valuable piece of research for us into best ways of learning about climate, effective examples of museum installations on sustainability and more. His final report is very useful for us as we plan the main centre.
● CAKE team UWE
In November 2020 we were allocated a team of 4 UWE Computer Science and Creative Tech students as part of their Community Action and Knowledge Exchange (CAKE) scheme. Our global team of students worked with us until April 2021 to research the best tools and help develop a wireframe for our new website.
At our final review meeting, the students said that working with us had given them excellent real world experience and elevated their practise, as well as inspiring them about the Global Goals. One of them has started recycling and encouraging his flatmates to do the same!
● Ishwari Wadekar (UWE)
Ishwari started with us in May 2021 and will work with us for 6 months as her work placement for her MSc in Sustainable Development at UWE. With a first degree in website user design she is ideally skilled to help us as we develop and improve the website. We are looking to take 2 more students on placement later this year.
● Bec Mitchell
Bec has been volunteering with us 3-4 hours a week since January 2020. With an education background she wanted to learn more about sustainability education and support the
development of the Global Goals Centre. Bec has helped us with marketing, newsletters, admin and more! She says:
'I really enjoy volunteering with the Global Goals Centre as I get to act on my passions of sustainability and education whilst helping the Centre achieve its mission. It's the little things that make me feel part of the team like meeting up with Jenny and having my profile featured on the website. With things like this I know my time is valued which motivates me to continue volunteering with the GGC. I'm happy knowing that every time I volunteer I help the Global Goals Centre make a difference in sustainability education in Bristol and what's not to love about that!'
Conclusion and looking ahead
Our goal of creating the world’s first Visitor and Education Centre bringing to life the Global goals is still front and centre of our work. The short-term projects we have been working on all help deliver our aims of educating and engaging people with the Goals and form part of our co-creation work for what the Centre can look like and deliver.
Throughout this year we have continued to build relationships with key partners and organisations to help identify possible venues and strengthen our business model. At a time when the IPCC has declared a Code Red for Humanity, this is the time for Bristol to come together behind this project. time for a city centre venue to be made available for us and time for Bristol to lead the way as an SDG pioneer.
Financial Review and comments on accounts
The accounts show that the main source of income for this financial year was the large core funding grant from RH Southern from the last year. This mainly covered the costs of consultant work on setting up and running the organisation over the year. We moved to a more sustainable model through the year, as COVID continued, where the focus became more on immediately realisable projects, whilst still working towards our goal of a GGC building. Project funding came from diverse sources, and wherever possible contained core funding. We will continue to work on obtaining relatively small-scale grants for project and web development. We are also working closely with local business, councils and Universities to try and source an excellent city centre site, which will be a focus for the coming applications.
Reserves policy
The reserves held at bank at the end of the accounting period have enabled the charity to continue its development work through the remainder of the calendar year. A programme of work, designed to utilise these reserves and further incoming funds towards the achievement of the charity's objectives, has been approved by the trustees. This programme of work is under continual review.
Declarations
The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above.
