📍We’ve officially joined the Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce—and we’re delighted to share our new member plaque!

What makes it even better? The plaque itself is made from FSC-approved wood and printed with water-based inks by Graham James Sim at Specialized Signs, a small but meaningful example of sustainability in practice.

As members, we’re also proud to be leading the delivery of the Edinburgh B Corp 500 programme, on behalf of Edinburgh Can B and in partnership with the Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce. This initiative is all about supporting more local businesses on their journey to balancing purpose and profit.

Looking forward to working with more brilliant businesses across the city and to making sustainability manageable for all.

👉 If you're a business in Edinburgh and curious about what the B Corp 500 programme could mean for you, drop us a message...we’d love to chat.

Lanyards. They’re everywhere – but where do they end up?

Most are tricky to recycle and rarely reused, but there are better choices available.

From recycled materials to seed-paper and take-back schemes, it’s easier than you might think to cut down waste.

We’ve shared simple tips and UK suppliers in our new blog 👇

At Black Skies Blue, we work with SMEs to build practical sustainability roadmaps helping you make changes that fit the way you already work.

📍Cornwall ➡️ Edinburgh🚆 or ✈️ — which would you choose?

We tested both for a team away day and compared cost, time and emissions.
Here’s what we learned 👇

✅ Trains emit 87% less CO2 (but you knew that one)
✅ You can work on the move (when you have a bit of space)
✅ Delays happen on flights too (really, really long ones)

Sustainable travel isn’t always the easy option - but we’ve built a framework that helps us make better choices.

💫 The magic happens when purpose-driven businesses come together!

Our Edinburgh B Corp cohort workshops have been a incredible journey of learning, sharing, and growth.

From our packed launch event to moving to the stunning Scotch Whisky Experience (thanks to an enthusiastic cohort member!), every session brings new insights and connections.

What makes these workshops special? It's seeing businesses from across Edinburgh supporting each other, sharing challenges, and working together towards B Corp certification. The energy in the room is contagious!

Big thanks to our amazing cohort members who make every workshop dynamic and engaging. Together, we're building a stronger, more sustainable business community in Edinburgh.
