Measuring what matters

By inspecting your business

We’ll help you:

  • Find untapped sources of opportunity within your business

  • Identify sustainability-related threats

  • Respond to bids with confidence

  • Have environmental performance data at your fingertips

  • Quantify and reduce operational impacts

Before setting a destination and creating your sustainability route plan, you need to know where you are.

An Inspection is the perfect starting point for your sustainable journey. It helps build a picture of your current impact, giving us insight into any obstacles you need help removing.

It’s like going on a treasure hunt, where we set out to find the hidden strengths of your business.

Inspecting your business

With our inspection, we can go into as much, or as little detail as your business is ready for.

Regardless of your impact, the inspection establishes a baseline that we use as the foundation for building your plan going forward.

What makes us different?

  • As the little guy in the David Vs Goliath story, we think SMEs deserve a little extra care. The “big guys” have an army of resources available. SMEs, in comparison, face the challenges of limited resources, time and knowledge.

    But, we know they have secret powers! Big businesses are like sluggish super tankers that find it hard to change direction. SMBs by comparison are agile, free-thinking ships, much more able to innovate and adapt to change.

    And we guide businesses towards a greener future – because every small business having a positive impact, is a victory on our shared journey toward a better planet.

  • By hiring a small consultancy, you can take control of your sustainable journey without worrying about a big price tag.

    We don't upsell or pressurise. We’ll work with you to find solutions suited to your business and budget.

  • Your business may want to make the changes needed to embrace a more planet-positive future, but the process can seem overwhelming.

    When employees are already challenged and stretched, releasing the resources and hours to take a sustainable course of action may seem difficult to prioritise.

    Use us as much or as little as you need — from one-off coaching sessions to becoming a part-time extension of your team. No expensive permanent headcount, no unnecessary complexity.

  • As a boutique consultancy, our approach isn’t templated — it’s tailored.

    We believe success lies in listening, understanding and creating results-driven solutions unique to your business.

    You can expect us in your corner cheering you on, giving step-by-step instructions, and answering questions every step of the way.

  • Our services are designed to show you exactly how to put sustainability into practice and see real results.

    All that nitty-gritty, behind the scenes sustainability work and communications planning? That’s our happy place.

    This might look like:

    • A 1:1 chat 

    • Supportive coaching sessions

    • Event organisation

    • Understanding your impact so you can get started

    • Creating an action plan

    • Or end-to-end project creation, launch and communication

  • Whilst they’re awesome and can teach us lots, we don’t only team up with established eco-warriors. We’re on a mission to support anyone that wants to sprinkle a bit of goodness into their business.

    Whether you're new to sustainability, need an expert on hand, or have tried starting a programme without much success — we’ll help you make changes that can save money, outshine your competition, give you a purpose beyond profit and offer your stakeholders the transparency they crave.

  • You might have heard of the UN’s SDGs, B-Corporations and other sustainable accreditations and feel pressured to get one.

    We'll help you find the right path for your business. That might include using a recognised framework or working towards an accreditation, but only if it's right for your business.

    That being said, undertaking a B Impact Assessment (BIA) is a fantastic and free way to find out more about your impact. You can do the assessment to test the waters – without having to get fully certified.

    There’s no fear mongering or forceful tactics involved – just suggestions of what you can manage as a business.

How we work

It all begins with an idea.

Using 1:1 sessions, questionnaires, conversations and workshops, we discover what drives your business, what energises your workforce and why customers join (and stay with) you. We look at your current and past situation to build the picture.

To plot the course of where your business is going, we need to know where you are now, and that's why we do an inspection.
