Equity, diversity, and inclusivity policy

At the Bumblebee Conservation Trust we are proud of our commitment to being fair and impartial ensuring that every individual has an equal opportunity to make the most of their lives and talents.

We aim to remove any barriers, bias or discrimination that prevent individuals or groups from realising their potential and contributing fully to our organisation’s performance and to develop an organisational culture that positively values diversity.

We are continuing to provide a work and social environment free from discrimination, prejudice, intimidation, and all forms of harassment and bullying.

By demonstrating our commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion, through our day-to-day actions, we want the Bumblebee Conservation Trust to be a welcoming environment where individual difference is celebrated and embraced in the places we live and work.


Sustainability policy

To effectively tackle the climate crisis, every organisation must make significant changes to the way they operate. At Bumblebee Conservation Trust, we are committed to minimising the negative environmental impact of our actions and services, to adopting sustainable working practices and to accelerating the transition to net zero carbon.

We will measure our impact on the environment, engage with our staff and stakeholders about how we can reduce our impact, and communicate our journey transparently.

To guide our work in this area we have developed a sustainability policy, approved by the Board of Trustees in 2022. A summary of the policy is available here and people wishing to engage with us, especially suppliers and contractors, are encouraged to read it.

Since 2019, we have been accredited with Planet Mark, recognising our commitment to measuring and reducing our carbon footprint and meeting a minimum carbon emission reduction of 5% each financial year.
