HOW WE HELP PROTECT THE
ENVIRONMENT
At Hargreaves enterprises we recognise the impact we all have on the planet and try to take steps which are both affected and feasible for us to lower our impact on the environment and planet. We by no means believe we are perfect, but that doesn’t stop us from taking our responsibilities as a company seriously.
Our work to lower our carbon footprint and impact our planet currently takes the current form. This is a constantly evolving document and so will be updated as we change and improve how we tackle this very important and every evolving challenge.
Planting Trees
We at Hargreaves Enterprises work with a partner business to plant trees each month. By doing this we hope to reduce our carbon footprint, provide homes for all creatures great and small, and create jobs for others. Though we know this won’t offset our total Carbon Footprint by itself, we also know that we have to make a start at giving back to our planet & towards helping our environment. As a company, we see this as one way to do so. What's more we get to include every guest that visits one of our businesses in this journey as well.
As always we will continue to explore other ways that we can reduce our impact and consumption of resources, whilst being able to give back to our planet.
Ink cartridge recycling
We are now partnered with HP to recycle our ink cartridges. None of our ink cartridges are ever sent to landfill. Our cartridges are packed up and recycled efficiently, and repurposed. This avoids waste and gives products renewed life.
Waste & recycling
All our businesses keep waste to a minimum by doing everything we reasonably can to prevent, reuse, recycle or recover waste where possible. This includes everything from food and drink products to packaging and glass bottles.
Energy efficient lighting
Our businesses have been designed to maintain energy efficient standards. We have used energy efficient lighting throughout all our buildings in an effort to reduce our carbon footprint wherever possible. We also use energy efficient materials in all new builds to make sure we waste as little energy as possible from the start.
Technology
We have started our journey to becoming greener but there is always more to do. At our Church Suites site we currently use new heating technology to power our heating through the use of by bio-pellets.
