We are pleased to announce our Green Plan refresh for The Dudley Group NHS Foundation Trust, for 2025-2028.

The refresh of the Green Plan aims to refocus engagement and action within the Trust’s control, working to achieve our net-zero and sustainability goals, as we recognise climate change as a critical public health issue.

Our key aims across the Trust are:

  • To deliver high-quality care without exhausting resources or causing environmental
    damage to preserve resources for future generations.
  • To develop ambitious net carbon zero plans, including decarbonising our estates.
  • To embed sustainability into the heart of our organisation and lead on driving working
    practice towards using resources, like energy and water, more efficiently to reduce
    wastage.
  • To engage and inspire our colleagues and patients to take actions that will collectively
    make a big impact.

Please read the full Green Plan here.
