Social Value

Social Value is built into our core values and purpose, encompassing a broad range of activities, from across the business, sustainability, digital, procurement, HR, legal and commercial.

Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do, and we aim to have a positive impact on the economy, society and the environment.
