We’re continually working to improve our impact on the planet and support our local community, but know that there's so much more to do. In 2023 we installed solar panels on our large roof - substantially contributing towards our electricity usage.

Carbon_Reduced_Operation_2023

In 2021 we started our journey with CarbonQuota where they assessed, baselined and certified our 2020 greenhouse gas emissions. The intensity of CO2e emissions associated with our direct operations have reduced year-on-year (certified: CarbonQuota 2023).

Our absolute emissions fell by 12 tonnes from our baseline year of 2021. In 2021 our annual emissions were 109.20 tonnes of CO2e, and in 2022 they were 97.49 tonnes of CO2e.

Solar Power Energy

In 2023, we installed 658 solar panels on our large roof, significantly contributing to our electricity needs. This initiative will generate 25% of our annual energy consumption, substantially reducing our carbon footprint.

Over the next 25 years, our solar panels are expected to save approximately 1,500 tonnes of carbon, marking a significant step towards sustainability.

Supporting our community

We're proud to support local charity, Lewis-Manning Hospice Care, by providing complimentary printing for their marketing events and stores.

We also support them in fundraising campaigns, such as their annual Christmas tree collection.

We also regularly provide print projects for another local charity, Dorset Deaf Children's Society.
