Russell Bedford Prioritises Sustainability by Removing Event Gift Bags

January 2024

At Russell Bedford International, sustainability isn't just a buzzword—it's a way of doing business. We're committed to preserving the environment and reducing our carbon footprint, and that commitment extends to every aspect of our operations.

In 2023, we made a significant decision: no more goody bags at our conferences and events. Why? Because we want to cut down on the materials used for conferences and reduce waste. We've noticed that many items from these bags often go unused after events, so we're putting that budget towards supporting charities focused on environmental conservation and sustainability instead.

But don't worry, attendees won't miss out. Our events still offer fantastic sessions led by our members and industry leaders, valuable digital resources and takeaways, networking opportunities, and unforgettable experiences.

By embracing sustainable practices, we're not just promoting our brand—we're encouraging our members to adopt environmentally friendly behaviours too. We believe that sustainability is everyone's responsibility, and we're proud to do our part in protecting our planet.
