Step Up to Net Zero

Now in its third phase, Step Up to Net Zero is currently open for applications, supporting Glasgow SMEs in their efforts to reach net zero by funding five-month work placements who will help organisations take action towards net zero and circular goals.

Fully funded by Glasgow City Council and the UK Shared Prosperity Fund and delivered by Glasgow Chamber of Commerce, this project aims to support the city’s net zero ambitions and provides employability support for Glasgow’s workforce.

Organisations

Step Up to Net Zero provides funded support to Glasgow SMEs to take steps towards adopting more circular practices to meet the city’s decarbonisation and net zero targets. Participating organisations will be provided with a bespoke Action Plan, and benefit from the support of a five-month funded work placement (16-25 hours per week) to progress this plan.

Participants

Participants assist organisations in implementing an Action Plan, progressing activity that supports the organisations' circular and net zero ambitions. The recommendations set out in each organisation's Action Plan are specific to the individual organisation's needs.

My Climate Path

My Climate Path is a COP26 education legacy initiative for Scotland's young people created by Developing the Young Workforce (DYW) Glasgow, proudly supported by Glasgow Chamber of Commerce and funded by Scottish Government. This supports the Young Person's Guarantee commitment to provide every 16-24 year old in Scotland with an opportunity that will positively impact their future. Working with business, we continue to inform and inspire our young people on the roles and skills required for the jobs of the future that will drive sustainable economic growth in a circular and a net zero economy.
