Living more simply, being less materialistic and living with integrity, are key concepts in Simplify. Obviously these ideas are not new but as our society grows more consumer driven, deeper in debt and contributes to global warming, the need to stop and rethink is more urgent. Simplify causes us to make the most of our time, relationships and money, to live on less and give the money we save away to support those who have no other option.
On this page are links to campaigns, websites and organisations that share similar vision to Simplify and provide resources and ideas to enable us to live more simply and ethically.
