We were robbed!
We entered the Small Business Environment category at the Raising the Bar Awards, but the trophy went home with someone else! Huge congratulations to Madison May Consulting, a well-deserved win.
We're still very proud of what we've achieved, and especially of Karen and Sam, who pulled together every scrap of data behind our submission on top of their day jobs keeping our accounts department and agency running seamlessly.
We started by measuring our carbon footprint properly, including the tricky Scope 3 stuff that most small businesses leave out. Then we set about cutting it! In one year we managed to:
π± Reduce total emissions by 15%
π Lower Scope 1 and 2 emissions by almost 18%
π All while our sales grew by 21%
Add in 100% renewable energy since June 2024, a fully hybrid fleet and 500kg of waste kept out of landfill, and we're firmly on the road to Net Zero.
And because we don't do anything by halves, we made a video to support our submission, which premiered last night at the awards. This is the uncensored version π.
See you next year, judges. We'll bring a bigger bike.
