SUSTAINABILITY TRAINING AND L&D PROGRAMMES
Driving sustainable change in hospitality starts with engagement and education. The SRA designs bespoke training programmes to help teams build knowledge and confidence across all areas of sustainability in F&B — tailored to different audiences and expertise levels.
We offer in-person sessions across the UK and virtual training for international teams, available as stand-alone workshops or as a full series. To ensure lasting impact, we also provide follow-up resources, tools and recaps. If your HR or L&D teams are updating digital training modules, we can provide expert input to keep content relevant and practical, delivered in a way that works best for your team.
STRATEGY & POLICY CREATION & REVIEW
A clear strategy and robust policies form strong foundations for real change. They should ask the right questions, set clear, achievable goals and have a well-mapped-out timeline for success. Effective strategies and policies need the right infrastructure to track progress; they also need team buy-in so that everyone understands their roles.
We help businesses develop policies that are fit for purpose and help to deliver sustainable actions, whether that’s reviewing existing documents (like Supplier Codes of Conduct or Procurement Policies), assessing geographic risks or drafting new policies tailored to your needs.
SUSTAINABILITY AWARDS
The SRA supports the creation of credible and engaging sustainability awards, ensuring your programme stands up to scrutiny with our expertise acting as external validation. We work with a range of organisations, offering varying levels of support across sustainability and eco award categories — from developing criteria and managing submissions to final judging.
Our experience includes The World’s 50 Best portfolio of annual awards, the UK’s National Restaurant Awards, Flor de Caña’s Sustainable Cocktail Challenge, San Pellegrino Young Chef Academy Awards and more.
SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
Accelerating progress toward a more sustainable future in the hospitality industry is a mammoth task – and an urgent one. We’d like to offer you the opportunity to join us in supporting meaningful change.
The Sustainable Restaurant Association sets the global standard for sustainability in the F&B sector. We advocate for challenges to be considered holistically and we offer practical and impactful solutions. We know that most hospitality professionals are keenly aware that business operations must change in order to tackle climate change and social injustice in the food system, but many lack the tools and knowledge to do so.
Through sponsorship opportunities, we're developing a Knowledge Library rich with practical resources and guidance on how to address the key issues facing restaurants and other foodservice operators, outlining feasible actions businesses can deploy now. We're seeking your support in developing these resources, which include toolkits, checklists, how-to guides, templates, educational decks, explainers and more.
All materials will be fully accessible to sponsors, and we encourage you to share them widely. They will also be shared with our global network of certified businesses, making this the perfect platform for solution providers looking to support growth and overcome challenges.
