The Lambeth Climate Partnership team hosted the launch event for our new business engagement programme on Wednesday 20 November at Sustainable Ventures. The event aimed to share the findings and insights gathered from our initial survey of Lambeth businesses and ask attendees to vote on which interventions and solutions they found the most interesting and helpful to inform our business engagement programme for 2025.

The results from these votes were combined with insights from the previous survey and interviews to inform our future Business Network programme.
