Harrogate agency recognised by World Land Trust
The environmental charity World Land Trust has recognised a Harrogate research agency as a valued and significant supporter
The agency, which was established by Jennifer Brennan and Clare Vokes in 2019, donates a percentage of its annual turnover to the trust.
Its contribution was mentioned in the charity's latest annual report.
Ms Brennan said:
"Even if you’re too busy running your business, there are easy steps you can take, like supporting organisations like the World Land Trust to protect biodiverse habitat and help offset your organisation’s carbon footprint. If businesses act collectively, we can make a difference.”
