Travel and Spaces Policy
At Yopla, we treat travel and the spaces we use with the same care we bring to transformation projects. They should be sustainable, fair, and transparent, never an afterthought. This policy sets out how we approach both, so our partners know exactly what to expect.
Travel
We travel with purpose, always balancing impact, cost, and care:
Travel green first: trains, EVs, or other low-carbon options whenever possible.
Offset every flight: if flying is essential, we commit to offsetting emissions.
Keep costs sensible: up to £325 per person per day in the UK, £425 elsewhere.
Mileage rate: charged at £0.25 per mile.
Book flexibly: accommodation and transport chosen with flexibility in mind.
Plant-based preference: we eat from sustainable, organic sources.
No alcohol: clear, simple, and consistent.
Transparent expenses: bills shared quickly, receipts included in every invoice.
Face-to-face clarity: if travel is on us, we’ll tell you in advance so you know not to expect a charge.
Travel should be a pleasure, not a shock on the bill. That’s our principle.
Spaces
Where we meet matters. We prioritise quality, sustainability, and comfort:
Safe, welcoming environments: spaces must be professional, comfortable, and sustainable.
Cost aligned: under £200 per space per day in the UK, £350 elsewhere.
Flexible first: we book flexibly or make cancellation terms clear in advance.
Fuel for focus: wherever possible, we provide food and beverages to keep everyone energised.
Why This Matters
Travel and spaces are often overlooked, but they shape how we work together. By keeping them sustainable, fair, and transparent, we make sure our partnerships stay focused on impact, not admin.
