Environment

We recognise the urgency here. At Bounce we’ve had the basics in place for a long time, but that’s not enough.

In 2022 we launched Play with Purpose, a programme to slow the harmful impact of our carbon footprint and promote regeneration.

Internally we have established a cross functional Green Committee to lead the charge with our environmental agenda. The first, crucial step of calculating our carbon footprint is complete and efforts are now being directed towards developing and implementing short term wins and longer term plans.

To help us on our journey to net zero we’ve joined Zero Carbon Forum, a UK based non-profit, which was established to support the hospitality industry’s efforts to reduce its footprint.

In line with Zero Carbon Forum’s goals, we have committed to achieving net zero by reducing, then eliminating unavoidable emissions from our direct operations by 2030 and throughout our supply chains by 2040.

This is where we have got to on our journey to net zero:
