It is essential for businesses to become more sustainable in order to grow and be competitive in the modern world. Business owners have an increasing awareness of how they can lower their carbon emissions, but many are not taking action, and relatively few are embedding sustainability into their business model. The Sustainable Business Support Programme will aid you in incorporating sustainability into your strategy, and engaging your workforce in its implementation.
How does the programme work?
You will receive tailored support with a sustainability advisor who will work with you in building a Sustainability Action Plan for your business, including identifying key risk areas and mapping the actions required to overcome them. The support will be delivered virtually, on a one-to-one basis. You will complete the programme with increased clarity about the efficiencies and opportunities that come with improved sustainability credentials. With a strategy in place, we will support you in building the skills needed across your workforce to put it into action.
