Sustainability Strategy
Our Sustainability Strategy
At Quest and Thrive we are committed to promoting whole-health and wellbeing not only for individuals but also for our planet. We understand the importance of sustainability and have incorporated a strategy to ensure that all our wellness events align with a zero waste, sustainable mission. Our dedication to sustainability extends to every aspect of our operations, from event planning to execution.
Our Sustainability Mission
- Promoting a healthier planet: We believe that a healthy mind and body go hand in hand with a healthy planet. Our mission is to foster a greater sense of environmental awareness and responsibility.
- Zero waste: We are determined to minimise waste at our events by recycling, upcycling and reducing single-use plastics.
- Eco-friendly choices: We aim to inspire healthier living through eco-friendly choices, not only in terms of the products we use but also in the practices we encourage.
How We Achieve Sustainability
- Mindful event planning: Our events are designed with sustainability in mind, from selecting eco-conscious venues to minimising transportation emissions by promoting carpooling and public transportation.
- Sustainable sourcing: We prioritise local, organic and sustainably sourced products for our
events, including food, beverages and event materials. - Reducing energy consumption: We are committed to reducing energy consumption
wherever we can through the use of energy-efficient lighting, equipment and encouraging
attendees to conserve energy.
Measuring and Improving
- Tracking progress: We measure our sustainability efforts to continuously improve on becoming more effective.
- Stakeholder collaboration: We collaborate with local communities, vendors and partners to find innovative ways to enhance our sustainability initiatives.
While we are still a small company, we know that all change begins with one person, one company, one community, and that each positive action counts and can build into something bigger and impactful. With that in mind, Quest and Thrive will always take all possible steps throughout our journey to make sure that we don’t damage the planet and that, where we can, we leave it a better place for present and future generations.
For all our events, we strive to work with local experts where possible, not only to minimise travel but also to encourage people to avail of the expertise in their local area after our events. In this way, we support a circular economy where people get to learn about and support people working in their own community.
We encourage people to bring their own equipment to events if they have it, and to bring water bottles so we can minimise use of plastic. When we offer fresh food at our events, we buy local, seasonal and fresh, and are always eager and happy to share details of the suppliers whose produce
we are using.
We made the decision to buy reusable delph and cutlery instead of recyclable or compostable. There is a bit of work involved but we are delighted not to have to buy new plates, mugs, forks, knives and spoons for each event.
By attending a Quest and Thrive event, you are not only investing in your personal wellbeing but also contributing to the betterment of our planet. Together, we can make a positive impact and inspire a sustainable, healthier future for all. Join us in our mission for a better world, one wellness event at a time!
