IHPN Net Zero Pledge
PHL Group have made a pledge with the Independent Healthcare Provider Network to reach Net Zero emissions by 2035.
So far over 40 organisations, who deliver care in over 1500 sites, have now signed up to the pledge, with many more expected to in the coming months.
As a sector which employs over 160,000 people and delivers care for millions of people every year, this commitment from independent healthcare providers builds on the NHS’ own target to achieve net zero by 2040.
