Planet Trio began with three curious children from Nottingham who heard about climate change at school and decided to do something about it. Waimi, Mbetmi and Yimi started litter picking in their local community — and quickly discovered that small actions could inspire big change.
As Nottingham Council's first children clean champions, they made headlines for their dedication to keeping their neighbourhood tidy. Their weekly litter picks, shared on their YouTube channel, caught the attention of national media including the BBC, who featured them as young litter-picking heroes with practical tips for new volunteers.
Today, Planet Trio is a recognised youth environmental platform. They have been selected as official One Step Greener Ambassadors ahead of COP26, honoured with the British Citizen Youth Award, and featured at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show.
