ZoieLogic | We Are Holyrood

Keepin’ Holyrood Green

By Lizanne Smith Head

At ZoieLogic, we aim to leave every place better than we found it. We care for nature during outdoor events, reduce our carbon footprint, keep learning greener ways of working, and collaborate with local communities. By encouraging clean travel and taking dance to people’s doorsteps, we create art that inspires and advocates for a better environment for the people we serve.

Solar Hybrid Power!

It’s not magic — it’s solar power! We used the ProPower Solar Hybrid Generator, a clever machine that uses sunshine and batteries to make electricity.

It powered an inflatable 6m cube event space, and all of the kit needed for our activities and performances. This included lights, music, a dance mat, TV’s, charging stations and everything we need to bring The Holyrood Hub to life.

Thanks to solar power, our generator only ran for 13 hours instead of 145, which is a 91% reduction in diesel use. Whoa!

Litter-Picking Heroes!

As part of our environmental commitment to “Leave the environment better than we found it”, we teamed up with residents for a week-long litter-picking mission and the results were amazing!

We’re incredibly grateful to Biffa for generously providing 2 x 1100litre bins free of charge! Their support made this community clean-up possible, helping local residents take action.
