STAFF at Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust have been taking part in low carbon activities during the fourth annual Sustainability Week.

There was a varied programme on offer including low‑carbon living, sustainable travel and greener food choices.

Hospital departments and local partners came together to showcase practical ways to reduce carbon, save resources and support the Trust’s net zero ambitions.

Sustainability Week highlights included staff participation with free low-carbon food samples, expertly prepared by the catering team.

The Reclaim and Sustain Centre Team also gave a demonstration on how to repair, reupholster and reuse furniture and equipment.

Reclaim and Sustain Centre volunteer Sandy Parker teaches staff about repurposing furniture and equipment.

In addition, there were free ‘Dr Bike’ health checks, supporting greener and more active travel, and a Q&A with a Salisbury Reds representative on bus services and ticket options.

The Trust says feedback and suggestions gathered during the week will be reviewed, with several ideas already being explored for implementation.

Sustainability manager Gemma Heath said: “Sustainability Week showed just how engaged our staff are with making positive, practical changes.

“From choosing lower‑carbon meals to repairing bikes and sharing ideas, colleagues really embraced the opportunity to get involved.

“The suggestions we received, particularly around food and catering, are incredibly valuable, and we’re looking at how we can turn these ideas into action.”
