FEL is the Scottish environmental charity that’s changing our world for the better, project by project.

We believe that powerful change can be simple to make.

From e-bike libraries to vertical gardens, we bring innovative solutions that combine the latest technology with a hands-on approach. By working with communities, we show people how to make everyday improvements that help them, their neighbours, and the planet.
