A Platform for Good
We're all collectively aware of the responsibility that we have towards society. We know that we can play a part in making our world a better place to live. So as a company, we’ve publicly committed to being a Platform for Good.
As we continue to innovate, we’re thinking beyond just advertising and asking how each and every display that we maintain, and every contract we operate, can help to support the public, the environment, and other organisations working for good.

Being a Platform for Good. It’s in our DNA.
Sustainability & the environment
We continue to reduce our environmental impacts and be more sustainable, not only for the future of our business, but for the future of the planet.
We have a long history of initiatives, innovation, partnerships and projects to reduce our environmental impact and carbon footprint. We are accelerating our journey to be Carbon Net Zero by 2030 (across Scope 1 & 2) and by 2045 (across Scope 3).

Our commitment to communities
We're a very physical part of the communities in which we operate and we believe we have a responsibility to give something back to those communities.
In 2023, we delivered £29 million social value contribution as certified by Planet Mark. Social value quantifies our net social and environmental benefits to society.
We partner with councils, charities and other organisations to make a difference in local communities.

Additionally, we collaborate with many other charities throughout the year, lending support where we can.
