The InCrops Enterprise Hub and Low Carbon Innovation Centre will be delivering a series of free business clinics as part of Sustainability 2011 on 12 May, offering clear information and useful advice on how you can make savings, increase profits and raise your environmental profile through low carbon activity.

These sessions will be designed as bespoke responses to the needs of businesses - and we'd like your help in finding out what those needs are.
