From Barriers to Breakthroughs: Building a Climate-Resilient Business Community

Is your business beginning its climate action journey, looking to accelerate its efforts, or rethinking its priorities in the face of growing sustainability challenges? Join us on Wednesday 20 November at the Sustainable Ventures head offices for an evening where Lambeth Council and Lambeth businesses connect to shape practical solutions for overcoming barriers to climate action!

• Introducing a Draft Action Plan: Provide feedback on the proposed action plan to ensure it aligns with your business’s needs. Your input will guide the direction of future sustainability initiatives in the borough.

• Build Strategic Connections: Register for focused networking sessions with other businesses and sustainability experts to exchange ideas on practical solutions around adaptation, energy and buildings, and circularity.
