Make A Plan
The best way to improve your company's green credentials is to create your own Environmental Management System and achieve a BS8555 accreditation.

To help you do that we have developed an online training course, including a tool which will help you to review your business and identify key areas that should be addressed. What's more it's FREE for the first 1000 Surrey based businesses to register!


Who is it for?

If you...

  • Own or work in a shop, restaurant, hotel
  • Offer a building trade service such as electrician or plumbing
  • Run a professional office based firm such as accountants, lawyers or estate agents
  • Are involved in agriculture, horticulture or other land based activity

This is the ideal way for you to gain an environmental accreditation


Why do I need an environmental management system for my business?

An environmental management system is the simply the best way to:

  • Prove your environmental credentials to customers, suppliers and other businesses.
    A great way to gain external acknowledgement of the progress you are making. This is increasingly important for contract and tender bids.
  • Comply with an increasing raft of environmental legislation impacting on businesses.
    More change is coming in the form of new government regulations so minimise your risk now.
  • Save money by reducing and managing the use of raw materials and waste, energy and water usage.
    Increase your profits by increasing your firm's efficiency.


Is my business too small?

An EMS is for you whether your business comprises of 2 or 2000 people.
The BS8555 is the British EMS standard designed to help SMEs in particular, develop an EMS in six "bite-sized"stages, so that you can work at your own pace and complete the stages that are important for your business


Will it be complicated and time-consuming?

An EMS is a fast and efficient way to achieve quick wins
With the course comes a tool which will help you to review your business to identify key areas that should be addressed. It automatically produces an action plan for improvement in ten key areas and writes an environmental policy for you.
