Our NHS Commitments
As a supplier to the NHS, we are committed to complying with the NHS Social Value Charter and relevant procurement legislation and requirements. Alpha continue to follow the NHS Supplier Roadmap, and align with the NHS Evergreen Assessment.
We will aim reduce our emissions in line with NHS emission reductions and ensure no more than 5% of Scope 1 and 2 emissions and 10% of Scope 3 residual emissions remain by 2045. Any remaining emissions (those which cannot be reduced) will be offset/sequestered through supporting certified carbon offsetting/sequestration programmes.
We continue to work with our customers and suppliers to find innovative and sustainable solutions to help reduce NHS resources through the creation of a more efficient patient pathway.
NHS Evergreen Sustainable Supplier Assessment Complete
We are pleased to have completed the NHS Evergreen Sustainable Supplier Assessment. The Assessment is a self-assessment and reporting tool and resulted in us receiving a Level 2: Comprehensive net zero targets and reporting for carbon emissions. The information reported through Evergreen is supporting us to understand our alignment with NHS sustainability priorities and identify those areas in which we need to accelerate progress.
The Evergreen Assessment is one of several NHS initiatives designed to support its net zero and wider sustainability objectives. We are delighted to be supporting the NHS to achieve their net zero and sustainability ambitions, including those set out in the NHS Net Zero Supplier Roadmap.
