Last week we held a Greening your Business webinar, led by Chris Brant from Unmissable England and Amy Ross from Zellar.
The session had local businesses think about what sustainable practices they currently have in place and what else they can implement in efforts to become greener. Businesses were then introduced to Zellar's fully subsidised sustainability tools, aimed at helping businesses to calculate and reduce their carbon emissions. Spaces still remain on North Kesteven District Council's Zellar programme, click here to join.
If you missed the webinar but would like to receive the recording, please email levellingup@n-kesteven.gov.uk with the subject line 'Greening your Business webinar recording'.
This support was funded by the government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
