Sustainability consultancy forlive events & touring
Practical, evidence-based sustainability support — from a single tour report to an embedded advisory relationship across your entire programme. My background is in touring — screen tech, logistics, HGV, rigging — so I know how productions actually work, where the emissions sit, and what's realistically achievable without compromising the show.
I'm a certified Carbon Literacy practitioner and trainer, with hands-on experience across AGF (A Greener Future), isla, BAFTA Albert, ISO 14001, and B Corp frameworks.
Carbon Footprint Analysis & Reporting
Your production data turned into a clear, auditable carbon footprint report. Covers all operational emissions — crew and artist travel, accommodation, meals, equipment transport, energy, waste, audience travel, and merchandise — using current DEFRA/DESNZ emission factors.
Reports are structured for submission to sustainability frameworks including AGF (A Greener Future), isla, and BAFTA Albert, or for inclusion in your own ESG reporting. Full methodology transparency — every figure traceable to its source factor and calculation.
Reduction Strategy & Scenario Modelling
Where are the biggest savings in your production? I model reduction scenarios against your actual footprint data — what happens if you switch to HVO generators, consolidate truck movements, shift to rail freight, adjust the catering split, or change the accommodation pattern.
Delivered as a practical action plan with quantified savings per intervention, implementation considerations, and cost implications. Not a wishlist — a roadmap grounded in what your production can actually do.
Benchmarking & Metrics
A footprint number means more with context. I provide per-show and per-audience-head metrics that let you benchmark against comparable productions, track performance across tour legs, and demonstrate progress year on year.
Useful for production managers reporting to labels or promoters, and for organisations building a sustainability track record across their touring programme.
Embedded Advisory & Ongoing Support
For multi-leg tours, annual touring programmes, or production companies wanting sustainability built into their operations — I work as an embedded advisor from advance planning through to wrap reporting.
This can include pre-production sustainability planning, supplier engagement, on-tour data collection frameworks, interim reporting, and end-of-tour analysis. Scoped to fit your programme.
Carbon Literacy Training
Certified Carbon Literacy training designed for touring crew, production teams, and management. Not a generic office course — built around the realities of touring, live events, and production environments.
Delivered as an 8-hour programme in line with the Carbon Literacy Standard: 4 hours of self-paced online learning, completed in full before a 4-hour facilitated session (in person or online). The self-paced module covers the science, context, and sector-specific content; the facilitated session is where it lands — group discussion, application to your actual work, and individual action pledges. Participants receive certification from The Carbon Literacy Project on completion.
Sustainability Framework Support
Guidance and hands-on support for organisations working towards or maintaining sustainability accreditations and reporting frameworks — including A Greener Future (AGF), isla, BAFTA Albert, ISO 14001, and B Corp.
Whether you're starting from scratch or building on existing work, I can help with gap analysis, documentation, evidence gathering, policy development, and preparation for assessment.
