Our Sustainable Business Resource (SBR) is on a mission to support and encourage Small and Medium Sized Enterprises to improve sustainability throughout their business.


 

WHY?

  • To directly contribute to helping improve and protect our planet

  • To increase staff wellbeing, satisfaction, and retention 

  • To improve business practice in order to save money and save the planet

  • To plan for the future and ensure continuity  

  • To drive change through your business, and into the community 

We know that incremental individual change is not enough to create the societal shift needed to reduce the impact of climate change and other environmental challenges we face. The power and opportunity lies within how we do business within our communities, and recognising the true value of being a sustainable business. There is no economic sustainability without ecological sustainability.

This is why our Sustainable Business Resource, headed up by Plastic Free North Devon supporter and sustainable business trailblazer Steve Roberts of Turnstyle Designs, is encouraging businesses here in North Devon to come on this journey with us. 

 

HOW?

To help businesses in planning their sustainability journey, our SBR Sustainability Advisor will provide a one to one consultancy to identify how each individual business can reduce their carbon footprint, reduce or replace the use of unsustainable materials, incentivise staff, and help secure a more sustainable future. 

Simplifying the process of research and direction, we will take businesses through a ten-point plan to first identify unsustainable practices and then identify actions to improve this in all areas of their business.

 

WHO? 

Our Sustainable Business Resource is designed for medium sized North Devon based SMEs, in a variety of sectors; we create a bespoke plan for your business and provide support to help you keep the plan on track.  

WE’D LOVE TO WORK WITH YOU
