At the Royal Air Force Club, we are committed to operating in a way that is respectful of the environment while upholding the high standards expected by our Members. Sustainability is a key consideration in our day-to-day operations, and we continue to make conscious efforts to minimise our environmental impact. These ongoing efforts form the foundation of our wider environmental strategy.
Some of the initiatives already in place include:
- Energy Efficiency: We have implemented energy-saving measures throughout the Club, including the installation of LED lighting, motion sensors, and upgraded HVAC systems in key areas to reduce energy consumption.
- Water Conservation: Low-flow fixtures and regular maintenance checks help to limit water usage across our facilities.
- Waste Management: We separate recyclables, food waste, and general waste and work with responsible waste partners to ensure proper disposal and recycling.
- Green Procurement: Where possible, we source sustainable and locally produced goods to reduce our carbon footprint and support ethical suppliers.
- Staff Awareness: Internal communications and training initiatives ensure staff remain informed and engaged in the Club’s sustainability efforts.
- Switch-Off Policy: A Club-wide policy encourages staff to power down unused equipment and lighting to minimise unnecessary energy use.
