The Challenge
As pressure grows across healthcare sectors to adopt sustainable practices, suppliers to the NHS are expected to demonstrate real progress in reducing their environmental impact. Medicareplus International Ltd, known for their specialist skin protection products, recognised the urgent need to act—not only to maintain compliance with NHS requirements but also to lead in their field.
With new initiatives like the NHS Evergreen Sustainable Supplier programme raising the bar, the company sought expert guidance to develop a compliant, credible Carbon Reduction Plan (CRP) that aligned with NHS expectations while setting the foundation for meaningful change.
When asked if they would recommend us, Medicareplus International gave a resounding yes. They praised our dedication, helpfulness, and willingness to go the extra mile - qualities they felt made a significant difference to their experience.
Our Solution
Go-Positive worked closely with Medicareplus International Ltd to develop a robust CRP tailored to their business needs. The project was guided by a clear, three-step process:
Calculating Emissions: A full carbon footprint assessment was carried out, covering all relevant business activities that contribute to emissions.
Setting Reduction Targets: Science-based, achievable reduction targets were defined in consultation with the team, with a focus on long-term sustainability.
Delivering a Compliant Report: The final report was created to meet NHS and industry standards for carbon disclosures, ready for submission to key stakeholders and the Evergreen programme.
Throughout the process, Medicareplus received support from a dedicated carbon coach, Emily, who provided consistent guidance and made the experience efficient and stress-free.
