Earthshot

Trinity MAT Earthshot was launched, by our students, to over 700 staff on the 28 February 2022. The inspiration for this initiative came from President John F. Kennedy’s famous Moonshot speech and the Earthshot Prize Giving event, headed by HRH Prince William.

As Sir David Attenborough said: “If working apart, we are a force powerful enough to destabilise our planet, surely working together, we are powerful enough to save it.”

Our planet is in crisis, our students and staff understand this so we are standing up, speaking out and committed to making a difference.

Five pledges were decided upon by 700 staff that work within the Trust.
