Green for Business programme

As a business owner, you’ll understand the growing importance of sustainability, both in business and in the world. What you may not understand are the significant benefits that it can have for your company, on everything from efficiencies to cost savings.

Green for Business is a free programme that helps small businesses take the first step towards becoming more sustainable, giving you access to a green consultant, who’ll show you the small changes that can have a big impact on your company and the world around you.

Developing a greener policy can offer many benefits to your business, including:

• Increased cost savings
• Improved resource efficiency, for example, using less energy, water, and materials
• Reduced environmental footprint and greenhouse gas emissions
• Opportunities for higher and additional value on products and services
• Increased access to customers, improved corporate image and reputation
• Increased resilience to climate change impacts

What's involved 

Two days of mentoring with a specialist green consultant. This will include recommendations on specific changes your business can implement. Your specific needs will be matched to the green consultant’s area of expertise. Your consultant will prepare a detailed Green for Micro Report on your business.
