Business Declares Knowledge Xchange: Nature’s Workforce

Join our Knowledge Xchange event with Business Declares and Nature's Workforce, to find out more about the nature work guide jointly created by the National Trust, the RSPB and WWF to help transform how we work, and our natural world.

This comprehensive work guide is aimed at employees of large businesses in sustainability networks, or those who would like to start a network. It is also valuable for anyone who has their own business and wants to encourage their team to take more action on nature. The tools and resources have been developed with input from some leading businesses including our members, the Financial Times and Café Direct.

Format

  1. Introduction from Nature's Workforce team

  2. Launch Video from Deborah Meaden: Everyone in every business can bring nature back from the brink

  3. Alison Fortescue from the FT will speak as a business involved in Nature's Workforce, about how the tool was co-created with business, for business.

  4. Q&A

Speakers

  • Alison Fortescue, Company Secretary and Head of Compliance; FT

  • Kim Dunn, RSPB Save Our Wild Isles Business Advocacy Lead; RSPB

  • Ellen Howells, Communications and Engagement Strategy Lead; National Trust

More about the guide:

As an employee, you have a powerful voice which can initiate changes to help your business bring nature back from the brink. Your workplace pension could help fund the restoration of habitats, and your supply chain could shift to more nature friendly practices, having a positive impact on wildlife in the UK and beyond. There are lots of ways you could influence your workplace to make ambitious changes for nature.

You don’t need to be a nature expert to act. Together, the National Trust, the RSPB and WWF have created Nature’s Workforce, designed to help you start the conversations that will lead to lasting change. Bring your passion for nature, knowledge and ideas; and Nature’s Workforce will help you to ask the right questions, shape discussions and collaborate with your colleagues to make a plan for action that will benefit your business and the planet.
