The renovation at Holmefield has begun! We have been granted permitted development approval to convert one of two derelict barns into a dwelling. We are also refurbishing a lovely bungalow on the site. Both builds will take advantage of solar power and air source heat pumps.
We are working hard to create a more sustainable home for our extended family and our future. The Holmefield renovation project in North Yorkshire is built on a sympathetic approach to the outstanding natural beauty that surrounds it.
A fundamental goal of the project is to minimize our impact on the surrounding environment, and limit our consumption of non-renewable energy in the home. We will work these goals into the building design process as best we can, documenting our triumphs, failures, and compromises along the way.

Courses
Ecodove is thrilled to work with Metta Partners and Hive Founders Net to bring you this information-packed course on sustainability basics for startups. The course is available to purchase here.
In it, we explain sustainability basics: outlining the Sustainable Development Goals, key sustainability regulation, and common terms you may encounter. We also help startups address the elephant in the room: it is hard to focus on sustainability when you have few resources, little time, and no money. We show startups what they can do, even facing those constraints, and what they must do, if they want to survive and thrive in today’s changing world.
Don’t let a fear of the unknown stop you from embedding sustainability principles in the fabric of your business. There are some simple steps you can take to do your part.
Ecodove is delighted to partner with the SCM Leaders Training Academy to offer a Mastery Level course in understanding Sustainability for Supply Chain. This course is designed for supply chain professionals seeking to embed sustainability principles into supply chain management.
We start at the beginning, explaining what it means to pursue sustainability and how supply chain professionals can help. To reach mastery level, this course teaches you how to gather the right data to baseline and measure your progress as well as how to build a team that will help you reach your sustainability goals.
