2022 was our baseline year and 2023 is our first year of setting targets. Targets will be reviewed each year when more data is available and plans will put in place to achieve net zero by 2035.

Reduction of Scope 1 and 2 emissions has begun and is on track. Gas and electricity is on renewable contracts. Some of our offices have moved to more efficient premises. Reduction of Scope 3 emissions has begun and is focused on Business Travel which is our largest source of Scope 3 emissions. Initiatives include encouraging our people to use active travel/public transport and offering incentives to choose EVs.

Comment on your energy consumption

*

We are lowering our energy consumption by moving to smaller, more efficient premises when we have a lease break event. We are on renewable energy tariffs for gas and electricity. Each of our offices is located in multi-tenanted buildings. Our landlords don't provide a report of the number of kwh used in all of our locations so we are unable to report on it. Contacting landlords for additional information will be an action point for future reporting. Our owned vehicle emissions are not measured separately from vehicles leased by our staff which forms the majority of our fleet. Improving accuracy of measurement will be an action point for future reporting.

Calculations are based on spend and on self reporting by staff for Commuting. The accuracy of Business Travel calculations could be improved through analysis of each type of vehicle and the mileage covered. This is an action point for future reporting.

Actions and plans to reduce emissions *

Scope 1 Actions

own facilities

Yes

We have been moving office premises to smaller more efficient space at lease break events.

own vehicles

Yes

There are only 3 owned vehicles. Each of these will be changed to EV at the end of their lease and when a charging point can be installed at office locations.

own processes

Yes

As a service company there isn't any manufacturing processes to consider. Improvements can be made on measuring and reducing office waste created by employees. This will be done in conjunction with our landlords.

scope 2 actions

purchased electricity

Yes

All purchased electricity has been moved to renewable energy contracts. We have a policy of turning everything off at night when leaving the office. Some of our space has movement activated lighting.

purchased steam

N/A

-

purchased heating

Yes

We have moved to renewable energy contracts.

purchased cooling

purchased good and services

*

Yes

We have banned the purchase of single use plastics. We encourage our people to avoid printing to reduce the amount of paper we buy.

capital goods

*

Yes

All capital goods are recycled through local businesses/charities.

We offer a salary sacrifice scheme for EVs and will contribute towards the installation of an electric charging point at the home address of employees when an EV is chosen.

employee commuting

are you investing in climate and/or nature outside your value chain?

*

Yes

provide details of the project/s you invest in:

We enourage all our people to get involved in our Conservation volunteering days. These are run with local environmental organisations close to our office locations and typically involve a day clearing non-native species and/or preparing the habitat for native species to thrive.

how are they quality secured?

*

They are provided by local environmental organisations.

which value do they represent (in usd)?

*

This has not been calculated. We do not use this as an offsetting tool.
