At GGFS, we believe that sustainability and social responsibility go hand in hand. That’s why we’ve launched the Green Shoots Pathway — a social values initiative designed to empower and uplift new entrants in the funeral sector who are committed to making a positive environmental impact.

Our Commitment

We’re proud to support individuals and startups who share our vision of a more sustainable future. Through the Green Shoots Pathway, we provide:

  • 75% reduction in Greener Globe Funeral Standard fees for 4 years
  • comprehensive sustainability audit
  • A tailored improvement plan
  • Annual surveillance inspections to track progress and support growth

Who We Support

This initiative is open to funeral sector businesses that are:

  • Trading for less than 3 years
  • Generating under £20,000 in turnover

We’re here to nurture the next generation of environmentally conscious funeral professionals — those who are brave enough to challenge the status quo and build a better, greener legacy.

Let’s Talk

If you’re just starting out and want to make a difference, we’d love to hear from you.
