As January comes to a close with many New Year resolutions, why not keep one that helps reduce your carbon footprint with our 1Change campaign?
As colleagues, it’s the last chance to take part and calculate your carbon footprint to make that all-important 1Change pledge this month. Plus, don’t forget that any colleague who makes the 1Change pledge by 31st January will be automatically entered into a prize draw to win a ‘Zero Waste Starter Kit’. So why not help the environment and get involved!
Interested in making your 1Change?
Firstly, you'll need to work out what your current carbon footprint is, before you can figure out what pledge you should make to reduce your footprint.
Once you've decided what your 1Change pledge is, just complete our simple form by 31st January and you'll be entered into our prize draw to win a 'Zero Waste Starter Kit'.

Reducing Plastic in our Supply Chain
As part of our continued efforts to reduce the use of plastic, we recently purchased environmentally friendly umbrellas for our customers to use while queuing in colder weather at our Food Stores. Each umbrella is made entirely from recycled plastic and originates from 7 recycled plastic bottles. In total, we have saved over 7,000 plastic bottles in our supply chain! A small step for our 1Change initiative but ultimately the switch helps the reduction of plastic usage across the Society.
