Since launching, new partnerships have been formed, many shared they have gained and given business to partners directly from these events.
Along with Club personnel, guests heard from BE Net Zero Bridgwater Partners – Balanced Energy, discussing the importance for SMEs to understand their carbon footprint and demonstrate a clear plan on the journey to Net Zero.
The Club and Trust are delighted to partner with Balanced Energy through our new community led initiative “BE Net Zero Bridgwater” to support local businesses transition to a low carbon economy whilst supporting the local community.
The motto is “A sustainable business is a stronger business.”
