Our commitment to sustainability
At The Queen’s Veterinary School Hospital, sustainability is one of our key priorities. Our Green Impact Committee is leading the way with a comprehensive Hospital Sustainability Plan, introducing initiatives to reduce our environmental footprint and enhance our green credentials. Key efforts include reducing disposable materials usage, like single-use plastics and disposable surgical textiles as well as finding innovative ways to reuse clinical and practical materials in our teaching areas.
The wider Vet School Green Group, is a collaboration with both students and staff, and extends this commitment across the entire veterinary school and hospital. Together, we are working towards a Green Impact Award and environmental accreditation for the Department.
Through these efforts, we are building a greener future for our hospital - one that helps to protect the planet while continuing to provide exceptional clinical practice.
