Quality Care Group’s Commitment to Sustainability and Carbon Neutrality by 2035

Sustainability Begins at Home

• We are committed to minimising our own environmental footprint through various initiatives, including:

• 70% reduction of energy use since 2015, achieved through improved office efficiencies and optimised working practices.

• The development of a Carbon Reduction Plan targeting Net Zero by 2035, designed to further reduce our energy consumption and resource use.

• A stringent recycling policy that covers all materials, including metal, timber, glass, plastics, electrical items, paper, card, and food waste.

• Installation of cycle-friendly employer facilities, including a cycle cleaning and maintenance area, staff showers, a secure cycle store, and clothes drying facilities to promote eco-friendly commuting.

• Introduction of a Cycle to Work Scheme, encouraging employees to adopt sustainable and health-conscious commuting options.

• Energy-efficient lighting and heating systems: We ensure that lighting is used only as required and heating systems are optimised to reduce unnecessary energy consumption.

• Encouraging the use of digital communication and paperless systems to minimise waste and reliance on physical resources.

• Adoption of a hybrid working model, allowing employees to work from home at least two days a week, significantly reducing travel-related emissions.
