Derby - Small99's People, Planet, Pint™: Sustainability Meetup

Pop down to your local People Planet Pint meetup to find more about what's going on locally with sustainability and how you can get involved.

No pitches, powerpoints or panels. Just People, Planet, Pint/s.

Your local meetup is a great place to start your journey or continue learning, and meet diverse people to chat about life and how we can sustain it. Every job is a climate job, so come along and learn about how you can take action, as well as what is going on locally.

We welcome everyone, regardless of their experience or background. People Planet Pint is a space where everyone can feel comfortable learning about sustainability and sharing their ideas.

Afterall, creating a sustainable future requires connected communities. And what better way to bring everyone together than over a drink?

Prefer a Pastry to a Pint? Head along to ‘People Planet Pastry’! Equally relaxed and welcoming, they run during the day and offer an informal way to learn about what is going on locally in sustainability.

Claire Zwozny-Bestwick: I'm often introduced as my business name ‘CRZyBest’ and that's great, because I am Claire R. Zwozny-Bestwick. I’m a non-traditional, eco-friendly Silversmith & Sculptor, working from my CRZyBest Shedquarters in Derby, creating tiny sculptures in metal clay and turning them into jewellery and accessories. Ensuring our world is a happy place is really important to me, so when making CRZyBest creations I always try my best to look after my customers and our planet too, which is why I make every effort to source my energy, tools and materials from sustainable and ethical sources. Before starting my business, I was a teacher for 20 years and I still very much enjoy supporting others in their businesses, creativity and sustainability journey. I’m a massive advocate of collaboration over competition and my favourite things to make are inspired by dogs and beer, so when I’m not creating in my Shedquarters, you can find me walking my dog or sharing stories with people in my favourite pub, so what better next step than to start hosting ‘People, Planet, Pint’ in The Flowerpot!
