Aberdeen Performing Arts Case Study

We believe that part of the value we add through our work is to accompany our clients and partners throughout their sustainability journey, however we can support them. Today’s case study is covering our work with Aberdeen Performing Arts, who has recently been shortlisted under the Climate Action category within the North of Scotland Thistle Awards, a reflection of their dedication to sustainability and their hard work over the years.

George Leslie receives positive feedback on their Carbon Management Plan

Sometimes it can take a while for the impact of our work to flow back to us. In 2022, we supported George Leslie, one of Scotland’s major construction companies, with the preparation of their Carbon Management Plan, a key requirement for the Scottish Water Framework. 

So we were delighted to hear over the summer that their carbon management plan received excellent feedback; it was strong in setting the scene, balancing long term and interim targets, clearly defining boundaries and connecting reduction projects to targets. Overall, Scottish Water noted that the plan provided great detail, and was structured really well!  

George Leslie were undoubtedly very pleased with the feedback, too. Our collaborative partnership with them continues to grow as we’re supporting them with their ESOS compliance which goes hand in hand with their carbon management plan.
