Founder Anthony Bennett, said: “We've always taken sustainability very seriously however wanted to work with an organisation who would continually challenge us to be better around our impact on the planet and our people.
“We've joined a community of likeminded organisations who are also committed to conscious business management and practices. We want to have a positive impact through our business and hope that, in turn, we can empower our community to take climate action too.”
