Environment and Sustainability

JBA has a history of making environmental concerns a priority in all that we do.  We conduct our business with sustainability at the forefront of our dealings and the ethos behind our company creates a unique desire amongst our staff to actually practise what we preach.  We all play our part in conserving energy, avoiding the use of paper, commuting on public transport or in car share schemes, and preferring the use of video-conferencing to travel when it comes to meetings.

Even our office kitchens are equipped with eco-friendly cleaning products.  The great thing about JBA is that it has always been this way.  This is not some knee-jerk reaction to current political thinking.  It is a belief that we share just because we care. 

In 2007 we planted a wood of mixed native broadleaf trees to offset our carbon footprint at a site not far from our head office in Skipton.  The land, which is now known as Catgill Wood, was granted to us for this purpose by the owners of the Broughton Hall estate, where our head office is also situated.

This year we have made great strides in our environmental achievements, as our latest environmental report demonstrates.  See the news item!
