What is an NHS Carbon Reduction Plan?
Required for NHS contracts
Officially required for all NHS work since April 2024 – it's a key element of the NHS's drive to meet its Net Zero targets and decarbonise its supply chain.
Includes emissions, targets and actions
Your Carbon Reduction Plan must include your carbon footprint (Scopes 1, 2 and some Scope 3) for your baseline and current financial year. You'll then need to make your Net Zero commitment, and build an emissions reduction plan show the actions you're taking to get there.
Published annually on your website
A Carbon Reduction Plan is a public-facing document that must be signed off at board-level and published on your website. To remain compliant, it needs to be updated annually and within 6 months of your FY-end.
🚧 The Challenge
You don't have the expertise internally
Carbon accounting can be complex. What data do you need? What scopes matter? Without guidance, it’s hard to know whether you’re calculating your footprint correctly – or meeting the exact requirements of a compliant Carbon Reduction Plan.
You don’t have the time to handle it
Carbon reporting often lands on someone who already has a full workload – from Ops leads to Sales Directors. It gets pushed down the list, until there’s a tight deadline and no room for re-works.
You don’t want to get it wrong
There’s real reputational risk in sharing data that isn’t credible – especially when you’re required to publish your emissions publicly. You need confidence that your approach is accurate and credible.
