Success Stories


Herefordshire Greenlinks - your local Green & Ethical Business Association

Greenlinks is a business community developing a vibrant local economy in the context of rising fuel and related costs, climate change and recession. Its members co-operate to support each other, improve environmental performance, share best practice and provide a joined-up picture of a sustainable local economy and community.

Greenlinks raises awareness of environmentally-friendly business practices, shorter 'product miles' and its directory improves access to goods and services which help local people reduce their carbon footprint.

Look out for our published booklets & newsletters at Tourist Information Centres, wholefood shops, and other outlets across the county.
