Social value
We fully recognise that our commercial actions will influence and affect the lives of people in different ways.
What we believe
We believe that social value is created when we bring together the social, environmental, and economic benefits of an activity and that is why social value is intrinsic to everything we do as we continue to build a sustainable business, delivering commercial returns to the wider economy. Our commitment to social value is realised through our clearly defined economic, environmental, and social objectives.
