From recycling to active travel, from prescribing to our greenspaces, from energy use to our supply chain – there are many ways that colleagues up and down the country are already working to make our NHS more sustainable.
We all have a part to play, whatever our role. We all bring expertise and experience to our roles and our communities.
We’re keen to harness your insights, your expertise and your experience to help us all.
Mapping sustainability groups and networks across NHSScotland can help us all share best practice and provide opportunities for peer mentoring and support.
What information do you need?
We want to hear from sustainability groups right across NHSScotland. We’re keen to hear about grassroots groups as well as more formal or ‘official’ networks.
These could be related to:
- your role or your specialty – or other sustainability-related experience you bring
- within your board or your work location
From cycling groups to green clinical networks, we’d love to hear from you.
Simply email nss.sustainabilityscotland@nhs.scot with the following information:
- name of your group
- remit of group
- contact details
What will you do with this information?
We’re keen to host the information on our internal NHSScotland Sustainability Action Programme SharePoint site, so all colleagues can:
- share expertise, enthusiasm and best practice
- make connections and collaborate on sustainability initiatives
- provide peer-to-peer mentoring and support (where possible)
We’re all in this together – and the more we work together, the more we can achieve.
