Carma makes social and environmental impact simple and affordable.
How Carma came about
With a desire to make a tangible difference in the world. Iain Gurney, moved by the alarming rate of climate change and the prevalence of greenwashing, decided to leverage his technical expertise to address this global issue. As a family man, the urgency to leave the world better than he found it resonated deeply with him.
Alongside him, Jim Holland, a veteran with a profound care for both people and the planet. Jim's realisation that he could significantly contribute to the pathway of veterans’ resettlement through Carma was the beginning of his journey.
Together, their combined passions and beliefs brought Carma to life - a company rooted in the principles of genuine environmental change and human well-being, dedicated to creating a sustainable future for all.

Helping veterans and reducing CO2 at the same time is a calling for me. I’ve had the best life, 13 years in the Royal Navy was just the start, I’ve since worked for Vodafone and Sky. Now it’s time to make a difference.
I started Carma because I love technology and care a lot about the environment. When I'm not working, I'm usually spending time with my family, riding boards, or climbing. I also coach young people in my area through my charity.
An experienced NED working with businesses to support growth, leadership development and transition. As a former CEO she now uses her experience to mentor and consult businesses.
As a Veteran in the built environment, I've witnessed the slow progress on social value and climate action. Working at Carma allows me to tuck my kids in at night and say with a clear conscience I am trying to do something to make their world better.
As an entrepreneur and solicitor Mark brings a wealth of experience to Carma. He is also a Trustee for music charity 'Omnimusic' working to make music inclusive and that everyone has the opportunity to play.
I'm responsible for all things sales here at Carma which includes getting out on tree planting days which are great! Outside of my day to day I like to keep active or be outdoors and most Saturdays you'll find me on a rugby pitch.
I began working at Carma because I have a passion for using blogs and social posts to help people understand climate change and how they can help. In my spare time I enjoy going to the gym and spending time with friends.
A long-time web-developer, I joined Carma looking for a new challenge. I headed up development of the new Impact Dashboard project. I spend my free time developing video games and being with my family - whether it's hiking, tabletop games or just watching a movie.
I'm Taylor and I help develop and maintain the apps that power tree planting. At home I like to learn about business, and go on Discord with my friends.
