Kids Against Plastic was founded by sisters Amy and Ella Meek when they were 12 and 10, and is now a registered UK charity (1179917). Its Planet Friendly Missions give primary classes short, practical challenges; Climate Action Teams are weekly club packs for any school age; the Action Academy is a free online course for 11–18s; and Follow The Plastic is a litter-logging tool that turns a clean-up into data. It is UK-oriented but open to international schools and home educators.

Who made and funded this: Kids Against Plastic (UK charity), funded by donations and grants; no industry sponsorship stated. How to use it: start with a Planet Friendly Mission for ages 5–11, or point 11–18s to the Action Academy; pair with our Classroom Plastic Audit so the mission ends in a number. Free; link only (award submissions have their own terms).
