Environmental practice

  1. All our energy is sourced from 100% renewable energy.
  2. All our lighting has been changed to LED and low energy fittings.
  3. We recycle all of our waste paper, cardboard, glass and hard plastics.
  4. We have added plants around the practice to reduce CO2 levels.
  5. We encourage staff to walk or take public transport where possible.

We have signed up for the NET ZERO DENTISTRY programme. We have had our environmental footprint assessed and been given ways to improve this further.

One of our biggest barriers is the fact that we are restricted by NHS rules and regulations regarding single use PPE and single use instruments and consumables.

There is a long way to go and we can always make improvements in the future in order to meet our aim of becoming fully net zero.
