How to Get Green Accreditation

Green Tourism Business Scheme (GTBS)
Sustainability and green issues are now very much mainstream, with governments, businesses and individuals all getting involved. And tourism, as one of the main economic drivers in the UK, has a key part to play. 

This is where the Green Tourism Business Scheme (GTBS) comes in.

Leading sustainable tourism certification scheme
The GTBS is the leading sustainable tourism certification scheme in the UK, with over 1400 members. 

Businesses opting to join are assessed by a qualified grading advisor against a rigorous set of criteria, covering a range of areas, such as

• energy and water efficiency
• waste management
• biodiversity and more.

Get a bronze, silver or gold award
Businesses that meet the required standard, receive a Bronze, Silver, or Gold award based on their level of achievement. 

The current network of members is comprised of a wide range of business types, including accommodation providers, visitor attractions, corporate offices and others.
