What the charity does
Greener Orkney is committed to reducing Orkney’s carbon footprint and raising awareness of climate change through practical action and education. We run two community fridges to prevent food waste and organise regular beach cleans to tackle marine litter. As members of the Scottish Islands Federation, we have researched local marine litter and work with partners to develop a circular economy. Since May 2025, we have operated a repair café to promote reuse and reduce waste. These initiatives help protect the environment and educate our community on how they can make a difference

Why there's no Clarity Score yet
The Clarity Score is computed from full financial filing history. Greener Orkney (SCIO) is on the official register but outside the detailed-filing group we currently score (or awaiting its first filings), so we show its official register record instead of a rating. Its score appears automatically once enough filing data exists — never by payment. How scoring works
