With businesses from across South and East London attending last year’s River Cruise to explore more cost effective and sustainable travel options for their organisation, this year’s FREE “Carbon Crunch” event – to be held at the Tower of London from 9.00am to 1.30pm on Wednesday 22nd April 2009 – is not to be missed.
This event, run by Seltrans in partnership with Thames Gateway Travel Plan Network (TGTPN) will provide local businesses with high quality networking opportunities and the chance to hear about how over 200 SMEs across London are reducing travel costs and their carbon footprint while improving staff satisfaction and productivity.
In today’s climate of economic uncertainty and focus on sustainability, a workplace travel plan can be an important tool. Available for free through Enterprise, every business should be considering the benefits a travel plan can provide..
With Kulveer Ranger, Director of Transport at the Greater London Authority, opening the event setting out the particular emphasis on the Mayor’s commitment to travel planning across London, the event will continue to equip businesses with the know-how and tools needed to begin work on developing a travel plan. On hand too will be experienced travel planners giving businesses the opportunity to an individual 1:1 session to discuss their organisation’s needs and how to proceed.
This free event promises to be our best yet with over 100 businesses in attendance. Places are limited and it is advised for businesses to book up asap. Visit www.carboncrunch.org.uk to register online or alternatively call 020 8622 4482.
