A new national campaign called ‘7-days to Sustainability’ has been launched by Planet Positive to offer all UK SMEs free sustainability advice.
Steve Malkin, Planet Positive CEO said: “Our goal is to help SMEs experience the business benefits of sustainability, such as saving money, generating new business, engaging employees and, of course, being good for the planet. The 7-days to Sustainability campaign is free and provides easy to follow steps to help business become more sustainable.”
The 7-days to Sustainability campaign is being supported by corporations who are at the forefront of sustainability such as Tesco, Alliance Boots, M&S and Deloitte. SMEs can register for the 7-day programme online on the campaign website www.7days2sustainability.com. The first SMEs will start their 7-day Sustainability programme on Tuesday May 1st and SMEs will participate weekly thereafter for the remainder of 2012 and beyond.
Energy and Climate Change Minister Greg Barker said: “Free help and advice, like the Planet Positive campaign is offering, helps to build businesses on sustainable foundations and reap all the benefits that energy efficiency has to offer.”
