Events.

Organising networking and hands-on events such as Clayfest.

Running the Charity.

Maintaining the website, writing newsletters, committee meetings, organising finances, raising the profile of Earth Building to expand our network and continue our work.

Starting New Projects.

If we received more core funding through donations and membership, we would be able to use it for things like:

  • Supporting apprenticeships

  • Lobbying to change building regulations

  • Creating more resources such as a free-to-use, comprehensive map of Earth Buildings in the UK and Ireland.

Trustees

We are always interested in hearing from members who might like to develop roles within EBUKI including trustee roles. Trustees have responsibility and oversight of the organisation.

If you are interested in a discussion about trustee roles please contact Lu Cooke (Chair of Trustees) here for an informal discussion.
