DATES
THE LDF GREEN BUSINESS MEETINGS 2020
[/vc_column_text][wiz_vc_button btn_text=”Thursday 26th March POSTPONED” btn_url=”https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ldf-green-business-breakfast-meeting-tickets-85472024125?aff=websitepage” new_tab=”1″][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][vc_column_text]We have taken the decision to postpone this meeting and will not now be conducting a webinar instead. As the situation moves so fast, we don’t want to be a distraction for businesses focused on immediate survival.
We will be here to pick this up in the Autumn when we all hope the world returns to some sort of normality.
In the meantime, we are keen to be of use to businesses and help them connect into any advice or equally flag any issues not being addressed.
Our CEO Sarah is a Director of the Cumbria Local Enterprise Partnership and as such is able to raise issues as they arise, particularly with relation to emerging issues and unintended consequences that aren’t picked up in central government announcements. There is a twice weekly call with the local leaders that is a good route through which to do this.
Please do not hesitate to contact me on [email protected][/vc_column_text][wiz_vc_button btn_text=”Thursday 30th April Book Now” btn_url=”https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ldf-green-business-breakfast-meeting-tickets-85472024125?aff=websitepage” new_tab=”1″][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][vc_column_text]

Workplace Charging Scheme
Funding for vehicle charging points:
It’s a straightforward application process with a very quick turnaround (about 2 hours!). We’ll be installing 10 charging points (5 double units) with £5k of funding.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
