In April 2022 the forum launched a Carbon Calculator and Toolkit, developed in collaboration with UKHospitality, BBPA, and powered by Sky, which enables hospitality operators and brewers to calculate their carbon footprint and identify achievable key actions to reduce emissions.  

The forum is supported by experienced practitioners and industry experts, endorsed by Government and is backed by trade associations, UKHospitality and the British Beer and Pub Association.
