Our values are what makes us: Sustainability, Honesty, Integrity, Fairness, and Teamwork.

 

 

Our focus on ‘sustainable use’ means society can meet the needs of the current population without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. 

The object for which WRAP is established is:

To promote for the benefit of the public the conservation protection and improvement of the physical and natural environment.

WRAP & Behaviour Change

In January 2022, WRAP joined forces with the UK’s leading social and environmental change not-for-profit Behaviour Change to accelerate the fight against climate change. Together we will be helping more people to make simple, lasting changes to tackle the climate emergency. Visit our media centre for more details.
