We encourage, where appropriate, the use of travel alternatives such as working from home, e-mail, video, or phone conferencing.

We encourage our staff and volunteers to walk, cycle or use public transport.

All computers, printers, and other electrical equipment are shut down at night.

Manure is removed from our site by Cawleys and composted for use as fertilisers to be spread on local fields.

Children and young people are transported via a minibus to and from Ride High in groups, reducing individual journeys and helping to reduce carbon emissions.

We’ve insulated our buildings and repaired and replaced the rooves and windows.

Most of our office equipment and furniture is recycled from other businesses and saved from landfill.

We use automatic watering systems for our horses to reduce water waste. Our supply is metered and we regularly check our pipes and taps across the site to eradicate leaks and wastage.

Our horse bedding is repurposed cardboard, a by-product of box manufacturing. It’s highly absorbent & efficient, reducing our carbon footprint through fewer, bulk deliveries & less waste.

We purchase recycled and recyclable paper products and reuse or recycle as much as possible.

We minimise the use of paper in the office, have cut back our promotional printing and are moving towards a paper free environment.

We choose the greenest cleaning materials and chemicals possible.
