Businesses and Developers – getting involved

How can my business get involved in the GCV Green Network?

The GCV Green Network will provide opportunities for your businesses to get involved in the creation and management of physical projects. You may wish to sponsor or fund a local project, or you may want your staff to become involved as volunteers.

To discuss opportunities for your business to fund or sponsor a greenspace project contact our Funding Co-ordinator, Paul Holmes on 01236 820537.

If your business is interested in volunteering as part of your Corporate Social Responsibility Policy please contact the greenspace team closest to you:

The GCV Green Network will also provide opportunities for new innovative enterprises to develop across the GCV Green Network for example through provision of business models relating to recreational pursuits or local tourism. As our work progresses these opportunities will become more obvious, please keep an eye on these pages for further developments.

 

 

How will we as developers benefit from the GCV Green Network?

As a developer our tools and guidance documents can guide you through the process of implementing Green Network requirements into your designs. To utilise our tools and guidance materials visit our Practitioners page.
