SUMMARY:Greening up the Vet Profession - Milton Keynes
DESCRIPTION:3rd  March 2020\, Milton Keynes \nGreening up the vet profession: Practical steps to sustainable practice \n\n\nEllie West\, Davies Veterinary Specialists & April Sotomayor\, Investors in the Environment \nWhat exactly is sustainability? Is it carbon or waste or both? And what could and should veterinary practices be focusing on to make the biggest impact? Quite apart from the ethical obligations\, sustainability makes good business sense. From the PR angle\, your clients will increasingly want to know you care\, as will potential new staff members. Legally you are obliged to adhere to certain regulations and these will continue to become tougher\, and financially\, saving energy\nand waste saves money. \nEllie West is a leading light in veterinary sustainability\, campaigning within the wider profession as well as leading by example in her own role at Davies Veterinary Specialists. She is joined by April Sotomayor who advises a range of businesses and professions on sustainability and together they take you through the challenges and practical solutions towards becoming a greener practice. \nWho will benefit: Anyone in practice with an interest in or responsibility for sustainability and/or waste management. \nMember rates for  SPVS VMG/ Investors in the Environment (iiE) Members £199\nNon-members £279 \nBook online at https://spvs-vmg-events.co.uk/product/greening-up-the-vet-profession-practical-steps-to-sustainable-practice/ \n\n\nContact: 01453 872 731 or at info@spvs-vmg-events.co.uk for further information\, location and times. \n\n  \n\n3rd  March 2020\, Milton Keynes \n\n\nA SPVS-VMG/iiE event.

SUMMARY:De-cluttering\, a modern cure for a modern ‘illness’
DESCRIPTION:The event is free to attend\, doors & bar open at 7pm but please reserve your seat in advance. There are no physical tickets but your name will added to the reservation list. \nDo have too much stuff in your life? Do you hang onto items for those ‘just in case’ situations?

Topics covered include carbon offsetting\, sustainable fashion\, Incredible Edible Todmorden\, Closing The Loop (the circular economy) with more events in the pipeline for 2020. \nSupported by Nene Living\, Village Connect and Transition Oundle. Funded by National Lottery Fund and East Northamptonshire Resource Management Fund.\nThis Event is hosted by The Owl Talks.
