Social enterprises across parts of Wales are to benefit from a free programme that will establish environmental management systems and develop their businesses using the Green Dragon Environmental Standard. Groundwork, in partnership with the Wales Co-operative Centre’s Social Enterprise Support Project, has been awarded a contract to deliver Level 1 and Level 2 of the Green Dragon Environmental Standard to social enterprises across the convergence areas of Wales. The Green Dragon Environmental Standard is a stepped system comprising five Levels of achievement, which provides the framework to make cost savings, comply with legislation, improve environmental performance and increase competitiveness. This scheme is free to qualifying social enterprises and offers the benefits of financial savings and improved environmental performance. The Project is part-funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) through the European Union’s Convergence programme which is administered by the Welsh Assembly Government. Places on the programme are limited, so if you are a social enterprise interested in participating, please contact:- Alison Fuller, Environment Project Co-ordinator on (01978) 757524, alison.fuller@groundwork.org.uk.
