Our commitment
Restoring and protecting nature in the UK.
We’re committed to restoring and protecting nature in the UK. We believe it’s more important than ever before for every business and individual to fight for a healthier planet.
We’re excited to share that we have partnered with The Future Forest Company and plant a tree for every contract we secure, with our 2024 trees planted near Menstrie, Clackmannanshire.
The Future Forest Company brings together environmental science and in-the-field experience to restore and protect our natural habitats, not just for our own well-being but for future generations.
By choosing to plant trees with The Future Forest Company, we are delighted to be making a real impact towards restoring nature, creating woodlands and safeguarding vital habitats, right here in the UK.
As a small consultancy business our carbon footprint is low, but it’s still important to us to do what we can.
We know that rail travel emits 10 times less carbon than car travel per passenger. As such we always try to make business-related journeys by train if a face-to-face meeting is required. In 2024, we saved 728kg CO2 by taking the train compared to making the same journey by car – that’s the equivalent of powering the average UK household for 36 days.
Over the past 12 months we have also replaced our laptops to the latest and most rigorous energy efficiency certified standards for computers, which means they are up to 60% more energy efficient than conventional models.
And it goes without saying that we’re an entirely paperless business by using digital documentation and communication tools to eliminate our paper waste.
Our Banking
Ethical matters.
We choose to bank with The Co-operative, the UK’s first ethically-led bank and best rated high street bank for ESG. Together, we can make a difference.
