So many brilliant small agencies and independent venues care deeply about doing things right… but when it comes to sustainability and ESG, they feel completely stuck.

❓What’s a real policy vs. greenwashing?
❓What’s worth measuring (and how)?
❓What even is ISO 20121 or Scope 3?
❓Is it OK to just… start small?

You’re not alone.

At LC&V, we’ve been exploring a 10-week live programme for micro-agencies, solopreneurs and small event businesses who want to build a real foundation in ESG without jargon, overwhelm, or shame.

🧭 It would be 2 hours a week. Guided. Human. Built for you.
But before we invest time building it, we’d love to hear from you.

Your answers will help shape what we build, who it’s for, and how accessible we make it.

ESG in Events & Marketing, "What You Need to Know"

Sustainability is a commitment. ESG is how you prove it.

But how does it apply to events & marketing? 🤔

3 ESG Pillars Every Brand Needs to Know:

1️⃣ Environmental 🌍 → Are your events carbon-neutral? Do you minimise waste? Use renewable energy?
2️⃣ Social 🤝 → Are you hiring diverse vendors? Ensuring fair pay? Supporting local communities?
3️⃣ Governance 📊 → Are your sustainability claims backed by data & transparency?

📌 REAL EXAMPLE: Major events like the Olympics & Super Bowl now have strict ESG policies. Brands that fail to meet sustainability expectations risk public backlash & reputational damage.

🔥 ESG isn’t just for corporations, it’s for every brand that wants to stay relevant.

💬 Do you think ESG will become mandatory for all businesses? Let’s discuss!

Sustainability vs. ESG – What’s the Difference?

🚨Sustainability. Environment Social Governance (ESG). Green Business. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). 🚨 Everyone’s talking about them, but what do they REALLY mean? And how do they impact your brand?

👇 Here’s the difference in three simple steps:

1️⃣ Sustainability = The Big Picture 🌍
→ It’s about minimising harm & maximising long-term value for people, the planet, and the economy.
→ Think: Eco-friendly events, waste reduction, renewable energy, fair wages, inclusivity for all.

2️⃣ ESG = How Companies Measure & Report Sustainability 📊
→ Environmental (carbon footprint, pollution, waste, water use)
→ Social (diversity, fair wages, human rights, community impact)
→ Governance (ethical leadership, transparency, no corruption)

3️⃣ Why It Matters for Your Events & Brand 🚀
✔ Audiences demand authenticity - greenwashing won’t work.
✔ Investors & clients expect ESG reporting (it’s no longer optional).
✔ Sustainable brands attract talent, customers, and media attention.

💡 Sustainability isn’t a trend. It’s the future of business.

Events have the power to inspire, connect, and create change, but should they come at the planet’s expense? We recently visited Boringdon Hall Hotel and Gaia Spa, a venue that seamlessly blends heritage, luxury, and an evolving commitment to sustainability.

🌎 They’re taking steps in sustainability, progressing toward a greener future. What they have initiated so far:
🍯Wildflower meadows & beehives - supporting biodiversity while producing their own honey.
🍸Locally crafted Boringdon Gin - partnering with an artisan distiller to highlight regional flavors.
🌱Gaia Skincare range - ethically made in the Southwest, featuring eco-conscious packaging & natural ingredients.

Looking for a venue with impact?
The Elizabeth Suite: Flooded with natural light, this flexible space is ideal for networking, conferences & private events.
The Rose Room: A sophisticated, intimate setting beside Michelin-starred Àclèaf, perfect for board meetings or executive dining.
Gaia Spa’s Spatisserie: Overlooking Dartmoor, this tranquil space blends wellness with business, ideal for team retreats & relaxed conversations.

The Àclèaf – Michelin-star, elevating Southwest flavors through a four-course tasting menu. The Mayflower – A refined yet relaxed dining space. Afternoon teas & crafted cocktails are signature experiences at Boringdon.

Gaia Spa is a sanctuary of wellness, where every product is sustainably sourced and naturally inspired.

Sustainability Starts With the Choices We Make Where we gather. What we support. How we create impact.
