Prevista is revamping our Sustainability Initiative!

Prevista has always been keen to do our bit to help the environment, including sourcing recycled materials where possible, cutting back on unnecessary waste and minimising energy consumption.

However, we want to do more to ensure we make a positive impact on society so for this reason we’re looking at revamping our sustainability initiative. Led by Sara Akhtar, Business Development Manager, with support from the Senior Management Team and a group of eco-conscious volunteers within the business, Prevista is taking big strides to make sustainability an ingrained part of our business by introducing a number of actions, just some of which are listed below:
  • With the recent news of the devastating effects of plastic pollution coming to the forefront of everyone’s minds, we are taking steps to reduce our use of single use plastics. This includes providing all staff with reusable glass water bottles to eradicate the need for disposable plastic cups.
  • We are partnering with an external environmental specialist to consult with Prevista and advise on how we can reduce our impact on the environment, including our carbon footprint, with a view to gaining a professional environmental accreditation.
  • Education and knowledge is key to making a difference. For example, we are putting up posters, giving short educational talks to staff, signposting to relevant bitesize e-learning and interesting documentaries etc, with a view to changing people’s behaviour not only at work but at home too.
  • With a supply chain of 50+ partners, we can dramatically increase our impact by extending our sustainability initiative across our network. This includes sharing best practice, establishing sustainability standards within our compliance checks and maximising cost benefits such as purchasing sustainable materials in bulk.
  • Prevista staff will be given the opportunity to get hands on by volunteering for environmental projects with sustainable charities.
