Venue secures green accreditation

Derby Conference Centre is celebrating after being recognised for its environmental credentials.

It has achieved ‘bronze’ status after undergoing its first grading under the new GreenCheck assessment scheme, managed by Green Tourism, the UK’s leading sustainable tourism certification scheme.

A Green Tourism Award demonstrates that a business works responsibly, ethically and sustainably, contributes to its community, reduces its impact on the environment, and aims to be accessible and inclusive to all visitors and staff.

The award highlights Derby Conference Centre’s commitment to sustainability, showing great commitment to making its business work more sustainably.

In a statement, Green Tourism said: “One area that the centre scored particularly highly in was the health and wellbeing goal.

“There is a distinct effort to both protect and enhance health and wellbeing within the establishment, making it a safe and inviting space for both staff and guests.”
