Could you be the next Green Entrepreneur? 

The Morecambe Bay Curriculum, Further Education Working Group are proud to Present: The Green Side Hustle Project!

Morecambe Bay is a unique and beautiful place. It's also changing rapidly due to new green tech, new organisations like the Eden Project, as well as ecologically due to climate-change and adaptation practices. The changes are a challenge but also an opportunity for entrepreneurs and businesses.

What is the Green Side Hustle?

• We’re challenging all students at Lancaster & Morecambe College to create a green business idea based right here, around the unique and beautiful Morecambe Bay
• We want you to create a Side Hustle business idea that links to nature, green tech or environmental opportunities
• Create a business pitch video for your idea individually or in a group. The winning idea from each college will win a £200 prize which could be used to make your plan a reality!

How to enter:

• Create a short video pitch outlining your ideas
• Submit your pitch by 8th June 2026
• Upload the video to your college OneDrive and email a shareable link to mbc@lancaster.ac.uk
• Please include the names of all team members and the subject "Green Side Hustle"
