The ESF Accelerating Circular Skills for Cornwall and Isles of Scilly (Arca) project delivered by Truro and Penwith College, is delighted to announce the release of tickets for a one day fully-funded conference on Leading a Sustainable Workforce, where business leaders can explore how they can add value to their finances, to their people and to the environment through sustainable practices.

Headline speakers at the event include serial Entrepreneur and Co-founder of luxury chocolate brand Green & Black’s – Jo Fairley, and Co-founder of the Surfers against Sewage and previous sustainability director at Eden Project Chris Hines. In addition, local business leaders will also share their journey of business growth and leading a sustainable workforce.

The purpose of the conference is to share the benefits of developing a sustainable workforce and how these could add value to the business, supporting sustainable workforce challenges by exploring how you can develop the people and profit, whilst protecting the planet, and addressing challenges with recruitment and developing a sustainable, engaged workforce.

Lisa Lawrence, Arca Project Coordinator commented: “We are excited for this conference. A skilled workforce is critical to a sustainable economy, we are looking forward to hearing how businesses can benefit from introducing or improving sustainable practices.”

The conference will be held at Nancarrow Farm, near Truro, on Thursday 16th March 2023 between 9.30am and 3pm.  The day will include a networking lunch using produce from the farm, with an optional farm tour after lunch.
