Morgan Sindall’s journey to Net Zero showcasing Dumfries High School

Elizabeth Halliday, Head of Responsible Business at Morgan Sindall Construction Scotland, presented ‘Morgan Sindall’s journey to Net Zero showcasing Dumfries High School’ at Dumfries & Galloway College’s Net Zero Business Opportunities for Dumfries and Galloway Half Day Summit.

Hosted as part of Business Week 2024, the event aims to promote the business opportunities within the Dumfries & Galloway region in the transition to net zero.

Attendees heard from a variety of guest speakers, including Elizabeth who presented on Morgan Sindall’s approach to Net Zero, our journey so far, our investment in creating natural capital, and specifically actions taken on the Dumfries High School which to date has saved 1746 tonnes of carbon dioxide - the equivalent of heating 647 homes in the UK annually.

Today's Net Zero Business Opportunities for Dumfries & Galloway event at Dumfries and Galloway College Net Zero Skills Centre was a fabulous start to Scottish Climate Week. 3 key takeaways.

If sharing Morgan Sindall Construction journey to net zero provides insight and inspiration, delighted to share.

Connecting with some of the most inspiring people in the country today will help us achieve that Scope 3 emission challenge but do it now.

Education is key. The Net Zero Skills Centre is transformational for D&G businesses to achieve net zero and to address the skills shortage.

Thank you for the enthusiasm, energy and continuous inspiration. It's a journey that is easier together and delivered one project at a time.
