Somerset

Green Plans

We recognise the scale of the challenge that climate change presents in our region and the impact it will have on our service users, staff, and our local communities across the South West.

We are working with all of our Integrated Care Systems to ensure that ensure we reduce our impact on the environment, working to protect and improve the health of our communities, patients, staff residents and the public.

The Somerset ICS have a Green Plan which outlines the initiatives, projects and activities they will deliver towards the collective focus in the South West to reach our target of Net Zero. This plan ensures that all of our NHS organisations have increased awareness, knowledge of, and understanding of our objectives and responsibilities, sharing our impact in reducing carbon emissions produced by our activity.
