Join us in Worthing for a Business Networking Breakfast. These events are a great way to build your energy-saving knowledge by hearing from expert speakers on the theme of ‘sustainable transport,’ including Francesca Iliffe and Nadeem Shad from Adur & Worthing Councils, Ian Skinner from Transport and Environmental Policy Research, and Mark Strong of Transport Initiatives. After the talks, there’ll be plenty of networking over pastries and coffee! This event will be held in partnership with Adur & Worthing Councils and Worthing & Adur Chamber of Commerce.
