Green scheme

Published Monday 25 January 2010 at 16:40

Applications are now open from theatres in London to apply to participate in Ecovenue.

The initiative has been developed by the Theatres Trust to provide theatre-specific environmental improvement advice to 48 small to medium-sized theatre and performing arts venues across London. It aims to achieve quantifiable improvements in the environmental performance of the capital’s theatres in support of the Mayor of London’s Green Theatre Plan.

Successful theatres will receive a free environmental audit, a free display energy certificate and advisory report, and help to develop an environmental policy. They will each go on to receive a free second display energy certificate a year later to help quantify results and promote achievements.

Ecovenue is accepting applications from all venues/venue managements not currently in receipt of more than €500,000 in aid from public bodies, with no more than €43 million on their balance sheets and less than 250 full-time employees. Application forms can be obtained by emailing tim.atkinson@theatrestrust.org.uk. Submissions close on Friday February 26.
