How PlanIt works
PlanIt Better offers the following services:

• Policy writing and planning: creation of a sustainability policy and identification of the actions needed to meet sustainability goals.
• Tools and implementation: suggestions of tools to support change with virtual or on-site implementation support if needed.
• Training: education for internal staff, as well as up-to-date insight; connecting clients with the latest sustainability innovations.
• ISO 20121: internal implementation and auditing of ISO 20121: Event Sustainability Management Systems.
• Accountability: review of goals against practices on an ongoing basis, and regularly check in to assess accountability and progress.
• Continuous evaluation: help clients build out data for continuous improvement to meet and exceed even higher targets year on year.
Commenting on the launch, Beck said: “Considering sustainability in live event delivery is so important, yet it seems to fall down the priority list when we get busy.
“I’m very excited to get to focus all my time into helping busy events businesses keep on track with their sustainability goals.”
