Welcome to This Week at theEHP, a summary of the articles that appeared on the site over the previous week.

This week at theEHP we have a site packed full of jobs, our Consultants Directory gets an update and we launch our eco STORE.

With the Version 1.1 update we no longer use a page on which to lists consultants. Each consultant now gets a post in the directory in which to advertise their services. This is a great opportunity to increase your online profile.

Why an eco STORE? At theEHP we believe it is important to recognise companies who work hard to make a positive impact on the environment. We have worked hard to find companies that produce environmentally friendly and sustainable products that may be of interest to you.

From products for your everyday use to the one-off luxury item, you will find what you need. This is something new we are trying and would appreciate your support and comments.

Looking forward to seeing you at theEHP.
