Green Impact – make a green pledge!

As part of our Green Impact scheme we are encouraging university staff to pledge to make a few small changes at work and at home to help reduce impacts on the environment.

Green Impact is an environmental accreditation and awards scheme, bringing staff and students together with their wider communities to enable and showcase positive changes in environmental practice
