About this Event

Sometimes, sustaining momentum when tackling environmental issues can be draining. This event shares the latest research from two leading experts - from Work Psychology, and Environmental Policymaking - while providing an opportunity for environmental managers and teamleaders to network with each other and share best practice.


Are you a manager or leader whose work touches on environmental issues? Do you support teams tackling climate change, sustainability, or environmental protection in the North of England? Join us for a unique breakfast networking event and the launch of a brand-new wellbeing toolkit, designed specifically for those working in environmentally engaged organisations.

  • Take away an exclusive toolkit filled with insights, quotations, and actionable advice to help you and your colleagues thrive in challenging times.
