Nourish Partnerships

Putting your values first...

We believe business can be a force for good. The Nourish Partnership is a bold way for organisations to invest in nature – reducing emissions, restoring habitats, and helping tackle the climate emergency in a measurable, meaningful way.

By partnering with the Swinton Estate you help protect and enhance real landscapes, from woodlands and meadows to rivers and peatlands, while also accessing trusted carbon and biodiversity credits.

We also support your team’s learning and wellbeing through environmental education at our Climate Action Academy, hands-​on experiences, and nature-​based welfare initiatives.

For many organisations, this partnership will be a step forward in achieving ESG goals. For others, it will be a defining commitment – one that strengthens values, attracts talent, and deepens purpose.

Together, we can cut emissions, rebuild ecosystems, improve water quality, and build resilience that benefits business, nature, and communities all at once.

Climate Action Academy

The Climate Action Academy is held at the Deer House which is set in our 200 acre listed heritage Parkland. The Hotel, Country Club, Walled Garden, lakes, and gardens are all in walking distance. These are day events, each of which focuses on a particular climate action topic, combining presentations with tours of Estate initiatives, hands-​on experiences, and networking. Ideally suited for decision makers who are investing in ESG and exploring the options for climate action solutions, the Forums are open to our Nourish partners.
