London Sustainability Exchange

London Sustainability Exchange (LSx) aims to accelerate the transition to a sustainable London by connecting and motivating people.

As a charity we work in partnership with business, government and the voluntary sector to:

• Reduce London's environmental footprint
• Improve the lives of London's disadvantaged communities
• Improve the health of Londoners
• Improve the knowledge and skills of our communities to achieve these goals

To achieve these goals we run learning networks and innovative exemplar schemes. We also seek to influence policy and practice throughout London.

We were founded in 2001 by the City of London and a group of influential partners, who continue to shape our development. In April 2008 we became an independent charity, having initially operated as a programme of Forum for the Future.

We encouraged over 75,000 people in 2006 to take up sustainable lifestyles through tailored pilot projects. We are sharing the learning on how to motivate behaviour change in diverse communities with hundreds of professionals across the capital.

Building on these foundations, we are now working to green London's food and drink sector, and actively supporting the delivery of a sustainable legacy for the London 2012 Olympic Games.
