- Some of our clients -
“It was the use of good practical language and a clearer understanding of the practical steps that are needed to make things happen that we liked – less corporate jargon and latest buzz words; they sound good but no one knows what to do next!”
Andrew CarpenterCEO - TR Group Limited
“From scoping and measuring our base year carbon footprint, to helping us set targets and implement reduction initiatives, Wymond and the team have developed for us a comprehensive carbon management strategy.”
Grant WebsterCEO - Tourism Holdings Limited
“Everyone commented on how clear it made everything, the whole emissions topic is very complicated and making it nice & easy for everyone to follow was great, much better buy in companywide if people understand what they are helping with.”
