Pollards & Talbots Sustainability Report 2022

CHANGES TO OUR OFFICE
WATER BOTTLES
We have distributed reusable
water bottles to all staff to reduce the
overall usage of plastic water bottles
within our offices.
The organisation that we have
purchased these from, Moon Bottles,
has teamed up with Eden Reforestation
Project to plant 5 trees for every bottle
sold and they donate 10% of their
annual profits to restore forests and
help communities in poverty.
COMMUNICATION
AND OPERATIONS
We use virtual conferencing Zoom or
Teams, both are efficient and reduce
carbon consumption by reducing the
need for travel.
We encourage our sales team to drive
hybrid cars and plan their journeys to
minimise overall travel.
Sustainability is consistently on the
agenda of all board meetings,
management meetings and works
council meetings.
RECYCLING CHAMPION
In June 2021, we appointed a
Recycling/Sustainability
Champion - Graeme Hasson.
He is passionate about recycling
and ensures we are doing all we can
to be as sustainable as possible.
His first action of his new role was to
enrol the business as an ISCC
Association Member.
For office staff, we plan to introduce a
bike to work scheme and are building a
bike shed.
