Managing waste according to our duty of care, and minimising volumes going to landfill, by careful procurement, re-use and recycling where possible.
Managing hazardous substances to minimise risk
Purchasing supplies which minimise the consumption of natural resources and recycling wherever possible.
Ensuring that buildings and fittings are properly maintained.
Adopting strategies to minimise the environmental impact of business travel.
