Newcastle - People, Planet, Pint: Sustainability Meetup

Whether you're a sustainability professional, small business owner, local council/government worker, student, consultant, looking to switch careers, or anything else besides, come down and meet others interested in sustainability.

No agenda, workshops or webinars. Just chat over a drink.

This relaxed event brings together those with a shared passion for sustainability in all its forms.

We meet monthly to chat about what's going on in the Net Zero / Sustainability space, "network" and meet others who are interested in the industry.

Let's see where the conversation, and night, takes us!

Chat with other industry experts and talk directly to business owners facing the challenges you're trying to solve. Find others who can collaborate and help you on your journey and have fun doing so!

Claire has long been concerned (borderline panicking) about environmental issues and after many years working in the waste industry and the public sector, she decided to forge her own path to connect with people. Venture Zero was established to engage with businesses, local communities and schools on the climate crisis, the link to our mental health and wellbeing and to empower people to understand that small steps add up to make a big difference. Claire delivers workshops/training and works with organisations on their roadmap to Net Zero with the aim of leaving people feeling more positive about the future.
