Working in partnership

In recent years, we have entered into a number of strategic partnerships and brought on new suppliers that share our passion for sustainability.

These like-minded companies continue to put the planet first and working collaboratively with them can allow us to meet our ambitious targets.

With their help, we can progress to become a leader and pioneer for sustainability in UK stadia and continue to develop our practices to reduce emissions further and monitor our carbon footprint.

“In order to ensure we are constantly moving forward to achieve our sustainability goals, we work closely with our partners and suppliers who can offer their expertise on how we achieve our carbon neutral aim.”
