GOLD79 is to help net zero consultancy Flotilla raise its profile with PR and social media services. In return, Flotilla will guide GOLD79 on its own net zero journey, from a comprehensive impact report through to meaningful, actionable goals for the short and long term.
Established in 2019, The United Nations Climate Change initiative-endorsed Flotilla is headquartered in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, with offices in Leeds, Glasgow and London. Combining technology, science-based intellect and expertise, Flotilla’s approach goes beyond consultancy to engage and empower employees to drive positive change from within businesses.
Its solutions include carbon accounting, net zero planning and delivery, Flotilla Climate Academy, employee engagement, quality-approved offsetting schemes, and consultancy. These are designed with the support of leading academic and climate institutions, including the world-renowned Priestley International Centre for Climate.
Francesca Woodward, marketing director at Flotilla said: “We’re delighted with what we’ve seen so far from the GOLD79 team. The strategy and creativity going on behind the scenes are of the highest calibre, and we can’t wait to start making a splash with regional, national and trade media. Flotilla’s proposition is truly unique in its structure – offering organisations top-down education, tools, and tech-enabled solutions to ensure their net zero plans make it off paper and create a real positive impact.
GOLD79 is the perfect agency to both understand and communicate our mission thanks to their track record of success throughout the technology, business and professional services industries.”
Tamarind Wilson-Flint, Co-Founder of GOLD79 said: “In today’s world, both consumers and employees are hyper-conscious of businesses’ environmental impacts. As PR and comms experts, we’re increasingly aware of the threat greenwashing poses, so the chance to work with a UN-endorsed net zero partner provides us with a valuable framework to tackle our own impact with confidence, while simultaneously enriching our experience in environmental comms to the benefit of our clients.
GOLD79’s new partnership with Flotilla aligns with our business values and speaks to the value of both of our propositions.”
