Pelham comments: “Throughout the course of the last year both Positive
Impact and Organise This have received feedback and requests for in-depth
sustainability support and advice. Businesses across the events industry
are seeking professional, expert knowledge as they attempt to improve their
sustainability policies and practices – with our history and enthusiasm to
support the event industry to increase it’s level of sustainability we decided
to respond to these demands with the creation of Sustainable Events Ltd.”
Sustainable
Events Limited has already won several substantial clients and projects
including:
- The Global Reporting Initiative development of the Events Sector Supplement
- Old Trafford Manchester United Football Club
