class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Together with environmental charity Hubbub, Starbucks UK has funded 100 new community green spaces across the UK \u2013 with an average distance of 2km from a Starbucks store \u2013 to help provide local communities with access to nature.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/body>\n\n<body><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Totaling \u00a3600,000, the Nature Hubs Fund as it has been dubbed by charity partner Hubbub, has funded a plethora of different outdoor projects including new gardens that grow food for the local community, outdoor theatres, yoga studios and areas for music performances to help residents connect, and converting unused, dilapidated buildings like farmhouses and old supermarkets into new outdoor social spaces.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/body>\n\n<body><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As well as providing initial funding, Starbucks stores across the UK are further supporting the green projects local to them through initiatives such as donating used coffee grounds to help create healthy compost, as well as encouraging partners (employees) to volunteer to give back to their local community. Each Nature Hub is publicly accessible and within, on average, 2km* of a partner Starbucks store, where activities will be promoted for customers, partners, and the local community.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/body>\n\n<body><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2024, a survey conducted by the environmental charity Hubbub revealed a striking truth &#8211; 81% of individuals experience a significant improvement in wellbeing by spending time in nature, yet more than a third of people (33%) in the UK currently spend less than an hour a week in nature.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/body>\n\n<body><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But don\u2019t just take our word for it \u2013 a number of communities have already benefited from The Nature Hubs Fund.
