Earth Day: Investing in our Planet

Be a part of the green revolution. 

The theme of this year’s Earth Day event is ‘Invest in our planet’. Time is running out for us to solve the climate crisis and reverse the negative effects we have had on the environment. Now is the time to act, now is the time to invest in our planet. 

The number of new sustainable products and services coming to market is increasing year on year, all that’s left to do is for these to be invested in the right spaces. The NHS’s green agenda is stronger than ever before, and they need to be ahead of the pack when it comes to green investments to reap the benefits and put their best foot forward. 

 To celebrate Earth Day 2023, we will be inviting speakers from a range of companies with new, innovative products and services that could benefit the NHS’s green agenda.
