Accelerating the path to achieving NHS sustainability goals

The NHS generates 4 to 5% of the UK’s total carbon emissions - so it’s no surprise there is growing pressure to drive sustainable healthcare. The first-year review³of NHS carbon reduction showed it was ahead of target, but to maintain this progress, healthcare leaders should consider the assistance of an expert partner.

Mitie makes decarbonisation of the healthcare environment simple. We have helped countless organisations across the public and private sectors implement net zero plans.
