Meet The Team
We are Yellow Button, a U.K based social enterprise aimed at helping communities
understand environmental issues through the medium of illustrated children's books.
Our Vision & Values
Yellow Button aims to answer this question; how can we help?
HOW: Educate- Raise awareness and understanding of environmental issues through our sustainable products and educational programmes.
​
CAN: Empower- To inspire confidence in peoples ability to create positive environmental change. E.g. Sharing positive news and ideas.
WE: Connect- Help to grow more community interest in the preservation of the environment. E.g. Holding community events and talks.
HELP: Support- To aid people on their sustainability journey. E.g. Offering inclusive and accessible information from creditable resources.
​
Yellow Button is committed to resourcing and producing environmentally sustainable products and programmes. We believe in a 'lead by example' approach. Our book for example, is printed in the U.K using FSC certificated paper, vegetable inks and can be recycled at the end of its life. The printing company we use has won many green awards and has a carbon catching programme in place.
We are proud about being a plastic- free enterprise and are currently working towards becoming carbon neutral.

Hi,
I look after Yellow Button, a Community Interest Company, named after a chapter in James's book.
I make sure we don't profit from pollution and invest back into the community through education and conservation programmes. I make sure all our products are as eco-friendly as possible.
