These can range from improved staff retention to selling more products and services. Take a look at our profit calculator to see what it could mean for your organisation.

We look forward to working through SHIFT’s recommendations and to future years’ sustainability audits.”

Richard Lloyd - Director of Operations, FCHA - February 2024

“This is our 4th SHIFT assessment, the assessments are a valuable tool for understanding our environmental performance, the data we record, and most importantly the areas in which we can improve our sustainability as an organisation. Our thanks to Asher for his guidance, expertise and support through the process, and for getting the report issued so quickly to meet our internal deadlines. We look forward to working with SHIFT again in 2024.”

“Our Scope 1, 2, and 3 report was great and a big hit with our executive team who are really impressed with all of the information and recommendations included, so we’d like to thank Asher so much for all his hard work. The information also allows us to build on our environmental reporting and provides us with a valuable quantitative benchmark for our carbon reduction roadmap.”

Amy Jones - Governance Manager, Curo Group - June 2024
