Sustainable Procurement: Policy into Practice 

Join us for this two-part workshop, illustrating through speakers and case studies, the flexibility and opportunities created by the sustainable procurement duty.  Presentations will share how to maximise impact and improve practice and support developments to your procurement strategies and reports. Working group case studies and ideas will contribute to ongoing work around the creation of a Community Benefits Catalogue.

A digital report will be shared afterwards.
