Not only was it a fantastic evening with the very best in FM, fundraising for Hull 4 Heroes and Mind, but we’re working with them to establish a baseline carbon footprint for the whole event, which will help guide future reduction strategies.
Thank you to our wonderful clients who joined us for the evening…
Embedding sustainability into the very fabric of your business makes commercial and environmental sense, and there’s no better time than the present to join the growing number of businesses taking their responsibility seriously.
Looking at sustainability on a global level now, it’s brilliant to see The International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) have announced new measures to standardise reporting in a move towards greater consistency and clarity. Meaning clearer guidelines and more credible benchmarking for those on their journey, fully aligned with our mission here at NCZ to provide transparent, accurate and actionable insights into carbon emissions.
Have a look at our latest blog for more details about these new ISSB standards…
And as we move towards responsible business becoming mandatory, why not get ahead of the curve and show your customers that sustainability really is at the core of your business?

Sustainability Tip
How green is your workspace?
Well, making it greener has loads of benefits, whether working in the office or from home. Plants on your desk naturally purify the air around you, absorbing toxins and carbon, as well as boosting your mood. A British study has even shown productivity can increase 38%, simply by having plants visible whilst you work!

Team Spotlight
This month our spotlight is on Alice, who has just joined our Customer Success Team… get to know her a little better!
Q) What’s your claim to fame?
A) I can’t say that I have a claim to fame or that I really would want to be famous for anything.
Q) If you had the opportunity to know the future, would you want to know?
A) No, I like to not know what’s coming! Surprises, even bad ones are always exciting and are needed to keep life interesting.
Q) What’s your go-to karaoke song?
A) Usually when karaoke starts, I take that as my cue to leave…
Q) What’s your favourite childhood memory?
A) So many good ones! All my favourite memories involve family being about and doing something simple like listening to music with my Mum, going for dog walks on the North York moors with my Dad, or visiting Grandparents. Or one of my siblings doing something stupid (and as the youngest it was always a good lesson in what not to do).
Q) Tea or coffee?
A) I make a good cup of tea and coffee, but for me it’s cold drinks or a hot chocolate in winter.
