Lara Conaway, Sustainability Manager at office transformation specialists Morgan Lovell, will be speaking at the first Sustainable FM Academy, taking place at this year’s Facilities Show.

The Academy combines a series of presentations and debates designed to instigate thought and action on both waste management and energy in buildings.

At the event, Lara will cover the challenges, together with the easy wins, when creating a sustainable office refurbishment, and explore how to carry out a green office fit out within a typically designed 1960s multi-tenanted building.

She will also focus on a case study involving Morgan Lovell’s own sustainable office design and fit out at its London headquarters, which has achieved the highest BREEAM rating for an office refurbishment project to date in the UK.

Entitled ‘Creating the Sustainable Office – Conception to Completion,’ Lara’s seminar takes place on Thursday, May 15 at 12.30pm.

The Facilities Show runs at the NEC in Birmingham from 13 to15 May.

Lara has worked in the office design and office fit out industry for more than 10 years. The Sustainable FM Academy is sponsored by FMX and BSJ.
