SUSTAINABILITY

Duncan's goal is to create with brands and initiatives that are planet and people forward, and 1.5 degree aligned. Executing those projects in ways that are as sustainable as possible.

He has been a member of 1% for the Planet since 2020, donating 1% of annual sales to environmental non-profits. In that time, he has supported environmental partners such as Surfers Against Sewage, Solar Aid, Protect Our Winters, Spitalfields City Farm , The Thin Green Line Foundation and Dirt Foundation for the regeneration of the Earth.

In October 2024 he gained his certification in Business Sustainability Management from the University of Cambridge. An upskilling decision made, so he could contribute in new and more impactful ways than before.

As a dad himself, the poem Tomorrows Child, is the beautiful summation of what is driving him forward.

Tomorrow's Child - recited by Ray Anderson

Tomorrow’s Child

Without a name; an unseen face
and knowing not your time nor place,
Tomorrow’s Child, though yet unborn
I met you first last Tuesday morn.

A wise friend introduced us two,
and through his shining point of view
I saw a day that you would see;
a day for you, but not for me.

Knowing you has changed my thinking
for I never had an inkling
That perhaps the things I do
might someday, somehow, threaten you.

Tomorrow’s Child, my daughter/son
I’m afraid I’ve just begun
To think of you and of your good,
though always having known I should.

Begin I will to weigh the cost
of what I squander; what is lost
If ever I forget that you
will someday come to live here too.
