A NOTE FROM TOM: HEAD OF SUSTAINABILITY
Tom joined the team as head of sustainability in 2023. He brings a wealth of experience and personal passion to the team, having worked for some of the largest consultancies in the UK, specifically within the world of sustainability.
Tom will be tackling the pressing issue of how AdventureBase can become net zero and reduce their environmental impact whilst still delivering world class experiences to their clients.
He does this through Pinnacle, curators of impactful sustainable change.
We believe life is better when you spend time in the mountains. Our mission is to connect people with mountains, whilst creating a better legacy for planet and people.
THE BETTER BUSINESS FUND
To achieve net-zero, we have partnered with the Nepal Evergreen project, a volunteer run initiative who plant fruit trees in the impoverished areas of rural Nepal. These fruit trees not only help us offset our emissions responsibly, they also provide a means of additional economic income for local communities, with the farmers taking ownership of these fruit trees.
