Business Sustainability
In 2020, Thame Town Council adopted a ‘Green Living Plan’ – a 10 year plan for a greener, cleaner Thame. Read more about it here. The plan has over 190 actions and in order to achieve them all will need engagement from the whole community – individuals, schools, community & voluntary groups, other layers of council and, of course, businesses. This engagement requires businesses to
- take steps towards sustainability within their own practices,
- explore whether or not they can reach out to support wider sustainability journey of Thame as a whole through involvement or sponsorship,
- promoting the action they are taking to encourage other businesses to take their own steps.
If there is anything specific you would like to discuss that is not already shown here, please contact Thame Town Council’s ‘Environmental Project Officer’ at becky.reid@thametowncouncil.gov.uk
