Responsible Business

Driving sustainability in an organisation of our size and complexity requires strong and determined leadership.

The Board and Executive Leadership Team are committed to leading the sustainable development of our business and the communities we serve. We promote a culture of honest and ethical behaviour and good corporate governance. We implement effective risk management and regularly assess the significance of material risks in the Group’s strategic risk profile, which was last reviewed in August 2024.
