We are a dedicated team leading the University’s climate strategy and community plan.

Staff and students all over the University are dedicated to working on sustainability. Get in touch and the Department can facilitate connections with the people you need.

Purpose

Our purpose is to support the University to make outstanding positive impacts for society, nature and the wider economy.

We provide leadership, advice, deliver major projects and support the embedding of practical action across the University community.

Vision

Our departmental vision is to enable the University to make positive environmental and social change proportionate to the scale of the global challenges currently faced by society.

We will do this by driving a step change in impact within the University through our actions, partnerships and thought leadership.

This impact will be multiplied by the University’s scale and influence in the wider ecosystem of higher education, business, government and community.

In doing so, our department will be a globally leading sustainability and social responsibility service in the Further and Higher Education sector.
