Karen Bradford and Mark Hubbard, the people behind Green Pages, are great believers that anybody can be a bit greener without sacrificing fun.

Karen Bradford said: “The directory shows that green is a great opportunity – not a lost cause.

On every page readers will find information to help them connect with friendly, independent businesses in their local communities.

By making it easy for people to find what they need, we hope to show that going green isn’t just good for the planet – it’s also good for the local economy.”

Their backgrounds and interests have led them to produce Green Pages.

Karen worked in London’s voluntary sector on many projects, such as developing a national network of food re-distribution projects to support homeless people.

Mark has worked in marketing and fundraising for many charities, for example, the production of London-wide cycle route maps.

Together, their experiences and enthusiasm have helped them to develop the exciting new Bristol & Bath Green Pages.
