Lil Projects

These are some of the projects we have underway at the moment. We are always striving to find new ways to support the circular economy, reduce waste, limit damage to nature, cut costs and support our community. If you feel the same and would like to help, why not join us as a Lil Volunteer?

Wouldn’t it be amazing if nothing went to waste, we could find a way to reuse all the resources that come out of our homes and businesses and eventually design out ‘waste’ altogether? This project is still in development and has so are been supported by Zero Waste Scotland and the Scottish Tech Army

Lil is home to the East Lothian Climate Hub which is now up and running, supporting and facilitating community climate action across East Lothian thanks to over £190,000 in grant from the Scottish Government. Click below to pop over to their webpages, find out more and connect with the Team

Lil believes to have a sustainable environment we need sustainable communities and vice versa. This project aims to connect people with outdoor spaces - to grow food, to create habitats - and in the process, with each other. Watch this space for updates


Lil has been part of Keep Scotland Beautiful’s Community Reference Group since 2023. We love doing Lil things together at every level, whether it’s the Board Room or household. For this work, we advised on community barriers, needs and opportunities as part of KSB’s role in the National Litter & Flytipping Strategy, resulting in this awesome online Litter Hub. We’re really proud of our small role in the impressive result delivered.

We especially love seeing PREVENT up there in big letters for tackling litter, waste & pollution.

Whether you’re keeping a note of the litter you see while walking the dog or setting up a new litter picking group, this is THE place to go> www.keepscotlandbeautiful.org/community-litter-hub
