Irish energy firm Energia has teamed up with Grow It Yourself (GIY) for one year to promote sustainability and health for Irish customers.

The partnership will incorporate the launch of a number of national projects designed to both inspire and support people in Ireland to grow their own food and promote healthy, community focused and sustainable lifestyles and consumer choices.

As part of the new initiative, Energia is further supporting employee wellbeing through the introduction of a GIY@Work programme for its staff. The programme will instruct and encourage staff to grow some of their own food as a lever to a healthier lifestyle.

Yvonne Boyle, Marketing Manager of Energia, said: "Growing your own fruit and veg and living healthily and sustainably are clearly clever choices. Energia's focus is always on providing and supporting smart and sustainable choices for Irish consumers. That's why we're delighted to be partnering with GIY on this 12 month programme. We look forward to announcing further details of initiatives to inspire and support as many individuals and community groups as possible."
