Sported Environmental Policy

Sported will be proactive when it comes to environmental sustainability and lead by example in our sector.
Amid a climate change emergency and a global waste crisis, we are committed to reducing our environmental impact and to supporting our members with their efforts to become more environmentally sustainable. As an organisation whose social outcomes align closely with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), we recognise we could be doing more against the environmentally-focused SDGs both as an organisation and for our network.
