Local business owner and Small99 workshop facilitator, Nigel Hudson, said “This will be a practical event to help small businesses realise the opportunities and reduce the risks posed by climate change and the need for us to reduce our emissions and wastes.

"With about 6 million small businesses in the UK, if we all do a little, it can make a big difference.”

Experts from Planet First Energy will be on hand to offer advice on energy options.
