Here are the steps to complete Activity 1:
1. Think about your event business and how sustainable your practices currently are. This could include things like using renewable energy, reducing waste and single-use plastics, choosing local suppliers, etc.
2. On the sustainability spectrum image, find where you think your business currently stands. You have options from Just Starting Out to Sustainability Leader.
3. Place the marker on the image to show your current position. You can always move it as your sustainability practices improve over time!
4. Once you've placed the marker, take a photo or screenshot of the image with your selection marked. You'll need this for the next part of the activity.

worth an estimated £36 billion per annum to the
national economy and employing hundreds of
thousands of people. It produces a variety of wastes
