The team behind Organise this and Positive Impact, lead by Fiona Pelham have launched Sustainable Events Limited.
Sustainable Events Limited provides sustainability, support and consultative services to businesses across the events sector.
Fiona 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 • Reed Exhibitions Ltd
Piers Kelly from Reed comments: “We have worked with the team behind Sustainable Events Ltd for over 2 years and they have delivered tailored support to meet our requirements. Their expertise and perspective is unique and they are forward thinkers in the area of sustainability.”
Both Positive Impact and Organise This will continue to run as an event management service and education provider and operate underneath the Sustainable Events Ltd umbrella.
Fiona is also President Elect, MPI UK and Ireland Chapter and co chair of the ISO 20121 standard (The international development using the BS8901 framework).
