The Group has set a number of long-term targets to direct and inspire the CR work. These are supported by annual objectives setting out what needs to be done each year to keep on track for these longer-term aims.

Our 2013 targets are:

  • To cut the absolute carbon emissions from both our UK buildings and our UK fleet by 15% (compared to the 2007 baseline)
  • To cut the packaging associated with every £100 of products that we sell by 15% (compared to the 2007 baseline)
  • To cut the number of single-use carrier bags by at least 30% (compared to the baseline above)
  • We will ensure that over 50% of the wooden products we sell are made from wood that is either recycled or certified by the FSC.
  • Pushing up recycling, ensuring that at least 75% of our waste is recycled.
  • For the Group's community programme to be raising £1m for a charity
