Our target is to be carbon neutral by 2027 and we aim to achieve this through a combination of internal initiatives such as driving digitalisation, and our engagement with suppliers to look at new, innovative building techniques and reducing landfill waste.

Recognising the role that we all play in ensuring that we leave the world a better place than we found it we launched our Environmental & Sustainability Plan in late 2020. Our key targets to achieving this include:

• 15% reduction in travel by driving digitalisation to maximise positive impact on the environment.

• Agile and flexible working with a target of 75% of workforce predominately homeworking.

• 30% reduction in energy use.

• 25% reduction in landfill waste from building repairs couple with “smart” building repairs.

• Process enhancements to ensure 100% reduction in use of paper.

• 20% increase in use of electrical vehicles
