Introduction

At COMI Health Ltd, we recognise the importance of addressing climate change and minimising our environmental impact. Our commitment to sustainability is embedded in our business strategy, ensuring we operate responsibly while delivering high-quality services. We are dedicated to achieving Net Zero carbon emissions by 2050 in line with the UK Government’s target and NHS sustainability goals. This Carbon Reduction Plan outlines our approach to measuring, reducing, and mitigating our carbon footprint.

Baseline Year & Emissions

To effectively track our progress, we have established 2024 as our baseline year for emissions measurement. Our current emissions profile includes:

• Scope 1 (Direct Emissions): No direct emissions from company-owned vehicles or facilities.
• Scope 2 (Energy Indirect Emissions): Electricity usage in office spaces and shared workspaces.
• Scope 3 (Other Indirect Emissions): Business travel, employee commuting, supply chain emissions, and procurement activities.

Reporting & Transparency

Our first full reporting year will be 2025, after which we will conduct an annual review and publish emissions data to track reductions. We are committed to transparency and will align our reporting with best practices, including NHS sustainability targets and Scope 1, 2, and 3 disclosure requirements.

Key Carbon Reduction Initiatives

To drive meaningful carbon reduction, we have implemented the following environmental management measures:

• Energy Efficiency: Implementing smart energy management in office spaces and transitioning to renewable energy sources where feasible.
• Sustainable Travel Policy: Encouraging virtual meetings, promoting the use of public transport, and offering incentives for low-carbon commuting.
• Paperless Operations: Prioritising digital documentation, reducing office waste, and promoting circular economy principles.
• Sustainable Procurement: Working with suppliers who adhere to carbon reduction commitments and ethical sourcing practices.
• Carbon Offsetting: Exploring verified carbon offset projects to neutralise unavoidable emissions.

Compliance & Regulatory Alignment

We are aligning our sustainability strategy with ISO 14001 environmental management principles and government policies such as PPN 06/21. As part of our commitment to Net Zero, we will assess additional carbon reduction targets in line with NHS supply chain expectations and regulatory frameworks.

Governance & Continuous Improvement

This Carbon Reduction Plan is reviewed and approved at the board level, ensuring sustainability remains a strategic priority. We will conduct annual evaluations, integrate climate risk assessments into business decisions, and engage stakeholders in environmental initiatives.
