KNUTSFORD resident Jay Tyson has launched a new eco-friendly company, Net Zero Events.

The carbon-neutral event and marketing agency is the latest venture of Jay, an event industry specialist.

Jay, whose family have called Knutsford home since the mid-1990s, said: “Events are an amazing way of connecting businesses, people and communities, creating great opportunities and fantastic memories.

“But they can be incredibly wasteful, and even with the best intentions there is still an impact on the environment.

“We’re surrounded by nature and countryside, and it seems highly appropriate that a beautiful town like Knutsford has a company whose focus is taking care of all of that for the generations that follow.”

Net Zero Events offers full event management and a service that will audit and advise existing events on the best ways to reduce or eliminate their carbon footprint.
