Supporting Literacy Through Chapter One Volunteering
We partnered with Chapter One, a literacy charity that provides one-to-one reading support to children aged 5-8 who need extra help developing their reading skills.
Sustainability
Adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015, the SDGs are a call for action by all countries - poor, rich and middle-income - to promote prosperity while protecting the environment. They recognize that ending poverty must go hand-in-hand with strategies that build economic growth and address a range of social needs including education, health, equality and job opportunities, while tackling climate change and working to preserve our ocean and forests.
Of the 17 UN SDGs, we consider the following seven goals to be those where we can have the greatest impact.
Our sustainable business strategy is aligned to the UN SDGs and is driven by our values and our strategic objectives to ensure that we operate responsibly and ethically. We focus on all areas of sustainability – Environmental, Social and Prosperity – and we report on four key sustainability focus areas (‘our 4 Ps’); Our Planet, Our People, Our Prosperity and Our Principles of Governance, which are supported by our ongoing ‘Smarter, Safer, more Sustainable’ business improvement programme.
If you have any suggestions, or questions about our sustainability strategy please get in touch with Sara Halliday: sara.halliday@severfield.com
