2. Emissions Monitored
| Scope 1 | Scope 2 | Scope 3 |
|---|---|---|
| Company vehicles | Energy purchased (gas & electricity) | Staff commuting & Business travel |
| Fuel combustion | Steam produced | Upstream delivery (transport) |
| Fugitive emissions | Downstream delivery (distribution) | |
| Waste generated on operations |
3. Commitment to achieving Net Zero
The Company is committed to reaching Net Zero carbon by 2050. With no manufacturing operations, the only relevant greenhouse gas to report is CO2, therefore our commitments relate to CO2 only.
This Carbon Reduction Plan includes details on how we will work toward meeting our commitments. We plan to improve processes and efficiencies across our UK operations, and within our supply chain.
We have a good environmental record with sustained improvements year on year, pro rata with company growth.

4. Emissions reduction targets
I. Raise employee awareness about reducing energy use.
II. Regularly monitor energy consumption.
III. Identify key areas for process improvement.
IV. Maintain our ISO14001 Environmental Management System certification.
V. Undertake regular energy audits to continually identify further areas for improvement.
VI. Investigate and identify if any electric vehicles can be introduced into our fleet.
VII. Promote the use of EVs among employees.
VIII. Reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by at least 10% by 2030.
IX. Assess Scope 3 emissions reporting.*
(*) 24-7 Healthcare have identified the areas of emissions that need to be monitored for Scope 3, but we are reliant on our supply chain (and their extended supply chain) to analyse and report their data. We are working with them to achieve this, with an estimated timescale of 24 months.
Data will be reported as soon as it is received.
