Are you a manager or leader whose work touches on environmental issues? Do you support teams tackling climate change, sustainability, or environmental protection in the North of England? Join us for a unique breakfast networking event and the launch of a brand-new wellbeing toolkit, designed specifically for those working in environmentally engaged organisations.

Discover practical strategies to support wellbeing and career sustainability for yourself and your team, based on new research and best practice from across the UK.

Hear from leading experts in work psychology and environmental politics, plus practitioner speakers from the sector.
