Cooperative Council, Stevenage and Social Enterprise, Wenta, join forces to support SMEs to net zero

A week on since we launched our revolutionary, affordable Net Zero service for small businesses, Stevenage Borough Council, have partnered with Wenta to support 100 local businesses in reducing their carbon footprint.

Small business owners in Stevenage now have the chance to snap up a free, Zero Gold subscription (worth over £170 per year) to the new Net Zero service that will position them at the forefront of tackling climate change and producing greener products and services. The first 100 businesses to subscribe will get access to Wenta’s top level subscription, Zero Gold, which is aimed at helping business owners to reduce their carbon footprint in a simple and practical way.

The Zero Gold subscription normally costs £9.99 per month plus VAT. It includes exclusive climate change and net zero webinars to explain what it's all about and how to reduce your carbon footprint, access to Wenta's experienced net zero and business advice team to coach you through each step of your journey, access to Wenta's exclusive carbon foot-printing tool, a personalised report focused on reducing your emissions as well as coaching to create and publish your net zero plan, plus much more.

Launched on Monday 18th July 2022, Action Zero forms part of Stevenage Borough Council’s work to get the town to net zero emissions by 2030 to defeat the climate emergency at a local level. It also forms part of Wenta’s wider social enterprise support provided at The Business & Technology Centre on Bessemer Drive, Stevenage where free business advice, skills training and affordable workspace is available. Action Zero is led by former Visiting Professor of Environmental Economics at UCL and Wenta’s (former) Head of Net Zero, Martyn Poessinouw.

Commenting on the partnership, Ed Jordan, Wenta’s CEO said:

“Whilst there is a lot of support for big businesses to reduce their carbon footprint reduction plans, very little is out there for small business owners to reduce theirs. Action Zero is here for every type of small business owner and is packed with sustainable, social and commercial benefits. Having launched the service just one week ago, our partnership with Stevenage Borough Council will mean local businesses get to be first in line to reduce their carbon footprint.”
