Walk the Plank's sustainability vision

Sustainability is a core value and Walk the Plank is a socially and environmentally responsible organisation.

"We are committed to sustainable development – to having a positive impact on both people and the Earth.

We recognise that there is a global climate emergency, that we live in a world of great inequalities and that there are continuing and vital struggles for social justice.

For us sustainable development is a continuous and constant effort to make a difference and bring about positive change in the world. We are committed to achieving positive social, economic and environmental impacts through our activities and to reducing and minimising any negative environmental impacts.

Our ambition is to be leaders in our sector, to develop and share knowledge and cocreate best practice.

The idea of a circular economy is something close to our hearts. We are inveterate hoarders and we are always looking to reuse and repurpose our creations and we look for the treasure in what other people consider to be waste."
