Environmental, Social and Governance

From our old office furniture, work mobile phones and laptops to using recycled material in our office carpets, we try our best to recycle what we can.

Our last crisp packet recycling campaign was a hit (but highlighted the fact we eat a lot!).

None of our waste goes to landfill, and working with local Terracycle outlets helps with internal engagement giving our people knowledge of what and how we can recycle more.

We encourage our people to use sustainable transport wherever possible. This ranges from our cycle-to-work scheme (we have office shower rooms and bike storage facilities), EV pool cars and discounted rates for public transport.

In recent years we've reduced our paper usage by 59% and gas usage by 24% and we’re on track to be net-zero by 2030.

By analysing our carbon emissions across energy, resources and travel usage, we are able to offset our carbon footprint. The offset calculation has allowed us to give back to Tyne Rivers Trust, Scotswood Community Garden and donate to beach clean projects.

We're ISO14001:2015 Environmental Management System (EMS) accredited and our cross-firm Green Team work on projects focused on reducing our impact on the environment each year.
