Leaders is committed to continually improving our societal and environmental impact in the way we run our events. This year, we have made a more determined effort to change some of our event practices and educate our employees, partners and attendees on how they could support us in reducing the carbon footprint generated by Leaders Week. We are working closely with our suppliers who, like us, are committed to continually finding ways to develop and implement sustainable practices and reduce their environmental impact.

 

Here are some of the ways Leaders Week is becoming more sustainable:

 

CLIMATE POSITIVE EVENT

    • We have launched a new partnership with Play it Green. Their unique 3 step approach to sustainability is about educating people to change their behaviour whilst beginning to repair the planet as well as give back to good causes focused on environmental and societal impact.
    • As part of our commitment to the partnership we;
      • Sharing key information to educate our attendees on how they could take more sustainable action in relation to our event, which you can view here.
      • Planting a tree for every attendee, partner and speaker who attends Leaders Week. You can donate trees to our garden here to further offset your travel to the event.
      • Donate 10% of the tree planting fund to City Harvest London and The Felix Project to aid more sustainable food practices.

FOOD AND DRINKS

    • Our food menu, provided by Twickenham, will feature an increase number of plant-based options. In addition, food products (whether plant or meat based) will travel a shorter distance from the source and will be sourced from local businesses.
    • We cater per head to reduce food wastage, however any leftover food will be donated to City Harvest London and The Felix Project via the existing partnership they have with Twickenham Stadium.
    • We remove all single use plastic at the event, including cups and cutlery. Glassware is provided for use at several hydration stations, plus over 1,000 reusable water bottles to be given away. All cutlery are metal, and recycle bins presented across the event.

SUPPLIER PARTNERSHIPS

REDUCED PRINT ONSITE

  • We are a e-ticket only event reducing the use of paper onsite.
  • All information regarding the event is available via our event app. No paper programs or other information are printed.
  • Where possible we invest in reusable hardware for repeated signage year on year to minimise the amount of waste post event.
