As a charity, we pride ourselves on helping life flourish in the heart of the city. From the wildlife that calls the parks home and the plants that brighten up our days, to the lives of visitors like you who come to enjoy the natural surroundings, spend time with family and friends, or lose yourself in a moment of peace and quiet.
Sustainability and addressing climate change are at the heart of everything we do. This means by shopping with us, you’re doing more than buying beautiful products. You’re putting the environment first and helping to protect these green spaces for centuries to come.
What do we mean when we say sustainability is a priority?

We collaborate with partners who share our values, ensuring they adhere to fair labour practices and ethical standards.

By championing small businesses and independent artisans, both locally and globally, we aim to support creativity and entrepreneurship, contributing to a more resilient and inclusive economy.
When you choose to shop with The Royal Parks, you support our efforts toward sustainability and contributing to initiatives that address the impacts of climate change on the parks.
This is an ongoing journey and we’re constantly seeking new ways to reduce our environmental footprint and increase our positive impact.
Thank you for supporting us, so that we can protect London’s precious green spaces for generations to come.
Every penny helps life flourish.
