A message from our CEO

I firmly believe Faversham House can make a positive impact on the world. Growing from the roots of a family company where four generations of my family have worked at various times over our 64 year history, I feel the responsibility and opportunity that gives us to make a tangible difference. Our brands are at the cutting edge of the energy transition and the high standards we hold for ourselves ensure we provide the impartial and insightful information our audiences and commercial partners need to do their bit too.

Our focus this year has been on refining our measurements and expanding our monitoring to encompass even more of what we do in better detail. This year our total carbon emissions dropped by 59% because of our focus on reducing the impact of our events.

Thanks to the many people in Faversham House who work so hard to realise our vision, it is certainly a joint effort. I hope you enjoy reading about our journey.
