Practical advice and support
The UK Business Climate Hub portal gives small and medium size businesses free, objective, clear and easy to follow advice and support on how to get started and get ahead of the Net Zero targets.
The portal’s design and content was initially based on the findings of an 8-week 'discovery phase' to better understand the small business context, understand what motivates or deters different kinds of small businesses in reducing their carbon footprint, and identify what they need to transition to net zero more quickly.
