About this event
Plant Pack rescues beautiful plants that would be binned due to lockdown and delivers them direct to happy homes. They prevent waste, support British growers, and all profits go to NHS Charities Together.
After reading an article which said garden centre closures would mean millions of plants across the country would be scrapped, they decided to do something about it. Miranda and Tom shared the idea on LinkedIn, began ringing growers and logistics companies, and 10 days later, launched a plant delivery service called Plant Pack. Since launch, they’ve salvaged 25,000 plants and raised over £10,000 for NHS Charities together.
The session is an incredible opportunity to hear how they were able to be creative & act quickly. Plenty of opportunities to ask questions, get ideas & inspiration.
At The Copy Club we believe we should be inspired by each other more often. Fun fact, this is actually where our name comes from – encouraging each other to copy (and nothing about copywriting, oops).
They’ll talk about the journey from idea to launch, the lessons learned along the way, and how their mission has driven their impact.
