The Royal Bath & West has become the first showground in the country to gain Environmental Management System certification, the award that gives companies and organisations top ‘green status'. The six stage programme set by the Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment has been completed in just over 12 months and the Society has gone on to become EMAS registered, the pinnacle environmental accolade held by only 170 organisations in the UK.
“As a champion of the rural industry the Royal Bath & West has always been concerned about the green agenda and preservation of the countryside,” said Dr Jane Guise, Chief Executive. “With this in mind we decided to formalise our commitment to the environment by implementing the Environmental Management System and we are proud to have received certification and are already seeing the benefits flowing through.”
