St Andrews event to help businesses be environmentally sustainable

Businesses wanting to join the two out of three Scottish SMEs aiming to be more energy efficient and environmentally sustainable, can learn how at St Andrews Business Club’s first event of 2020 on January 22 at Rufflets Hotel. Making your business greener will benefit you, your business and the planet. Three expert speakers will share their knowledge in the event which starts at 5.30pm. Resource Efficient Scotland Implementation Adviser, Fiona Flynn, will explain why and how SMEs can make their business environmentally sustainable, the benefits of doing so and the impartial expert support available from Resource Efficient Scotland. Reseda Muir, co-founder and Director of St Andrews-based Muir Walker Pride Chartered Architects and Interior Designers (MWP), will explain how MWP made its business more environmentally sustainable and how you could do the same for your business. Finally, University of St Andrews Sustainability Manager David Stutchfield will talk about its work on sustainability and how to market your ‘greenness’ and use it to build relationships with stakeholders. This will be the club’s first event to be held at Rufflets Hotel while its usual venue, The Old Course Hotel, is undergoing extensive refurbishment of its conference and meeting facilities. Anyone wanting to learn about this important business topic for business, as well as network, is asked to book via Eventbrite. A full list of this season’s events can be found at http://bit.ly/StABCEvents Full details of all the club’s events, most of which are now open to non-members, and how to join are available on its website at www.standrewsbusinessclub.co.uk and Eventbrite.
