What some of our clients say
Eddie Stobart’s Colin Kelly |
Sustainable Footprints was recommended to us to help with providing an internal focus for us to retain our leadership position in CSR and sustainability accreditations. Geri is extremely personable, and has great industry knowledge, and formed good relationships with our teams quickly, and after a short period of in-company work with us provided an incredibly detailed, professional and full report which will enable us to gain board support for the next stage of improvement in our business stewardship. I would recommend Geri and her team to anyone looking for this type of service. |
Martin Brower UK Limited Ben Winterbottom |
Sustainable Footprints conducted our ESOS assessment at Martin Brower. The SF consultant was incredibly enthusiastic, personable and knowledgeable on sustainability in general but paying close attention to sustainability in the logistics sector. The SF consultant was on site for a full day having discussions with various members of the team and made everyone feel comfortable with the audit process from the very beginning. A full and detailed report was provided to us with some interesting and thought provoking suggestions for improvement. I would recommend Sustainable Footprints to anyone looking to have any sustainable process improvement audits completed. |
Weatherhead Shop Designers Dean Piper |
We were recommended to connect with Sustainable Footprints to help develop our knowledge, systems and paperwork, and to support our aspirations to be ahead of the curve regarding Carbon intelligence, certification and authenticity. They haven’t failed to deliver at any point. Carefully guided by Geri, we have harmoniously partnered with Sustainable Footprints, who have unravelled the carbon jargon, unpicked the greenwashing which many use to colour paperwork, held our hand as we plotted a realistic and achievable direction, often gently nudging us to stay on track through Gap analysis, progress reporting and timeline prodding, all delivered with a personality and interaction which blurs the corporate partisan lines. We cannot recommend Geri and her Team enough. Should you be starting out on this complex pathway or a long way along ‘the road less travelled’ you would be hard pressed to find a company with the knowledge, attention to detail and charism of Sustainable Footprints. |
Festo UK Simon Fletcher |
We are delighted to have worked with Sustainable Footprints to achieve PAS 2060 for Festo Ltd. Geri and her team of experts provided tremendous support throughout the process, from assessing our carbon footprint to helping us through the third part audit process. Their guidance helped us understand the importance of setting ambitious targets and implementing sustainable practices across our operations, while ensuring our adherence to the strict requirements of PAS 2060. We are now proud to have achieved this standard, demonstrating our commitment to climate action and sustainability. We would highly recommend Sustainable Footprint to other businesses seeking to implement sustainable practices and reduce their carbon footprint. |
Esken Sundeep Sangha |
As part of Esken’s environmental mitigation and carbon reduction plan, we engaged Sustainable Footprints to deliver our ESOS audit. The team are incredibly knowledgeable about environmental issues, audit, legal and regularity compliance and have been on hand to provide additional advice and guidance, which has been very helpful. The ESOS audit was a very smooth process with clear requests for information ahead of site visits, well organised site audits and the team have been flexible as our business underwent significant changes. We would definitely work with Sustainable Footprints again for ESOS and other environmental projects. |
Afnor UK Fabienne Bonin-Bree |
I just want to thank you very much for the in-depth knowledge you provided us with. It was very interesting and I can only guess that our auditors found it very informative and useful with the level of questions and engagement from their part. |
Motability Emma Parsons |
The report looks great- we are really happy with the energy saving recommendations and will start figuring out how to implement them soon and look forward to working with Sustainable Footprints as our retained sustainability consultant. |
Me Learning Nick Richards |
I was keen to understand the impact my business had on the environment but had no idea how to go about this. Geri (from Sustainable Footprints) and the team took me from confusion to clarity, guiding me through the maze of processes, accountability and acronyms. I now have a detailed carbon footprint report and a reduction strategy that I am sharing with our staff and our customers. |
Bell Cert International Inspection and Certification Group Dawn Wang |
Your years of research, your depth of understanding of the GHG emissions issue and your ability to present the subject in such an informative way produced one of the most valuable seminars I have attended. |
Teamwork IMS Bob Brown |
Since 2015, Sustainable Footprints have been helping Teamwork IMS to support the energy management and sustainability objectives of our clients. Geri and her team are a much valued partner, working alongside Teamwork to understand and fulfil client legal compliance obligations and aspirations for improved energy performance. As sustainability has become an increasing focus for top management seeking to demonstrate their commitment to the environment, Sustainable Footprints play a vital a role in the delivery of specialist compliance support services for Teamwork customers. |
Silentnight Brands Jennifer Wood |
I would just like to say how helpful your visit to our site, on Friday 1st October was. You were a great help explaining the principles behind carbon footprinting and how we might be able to use it as a tool to reduce carbon emissions, waste and costs from the bottom line and it is certainly something we will consider doing in the near future. The information about the idea of using a carbon bank system to offset our environmental impacts was also useful and something we had not thought about previously and may be a more effective way for us to reduce our impacts than offsetting by purchasing trees. I will look on the hydroxycell web site to see if we can cut our fleet vehicle emissions and will also be looking into the MHS lighting system to see if it would save us money and help with our CRC commitments. All these ideas and many more, were very useful and the time you spent on site was well spent. Once again thanks for all the help and I would recommend your surgeries to any one. |
