- Improving the awareness and understanding of environmental issues amongst contractors, tenants and visitors
- Continually improve by putting sustainability at the centre of operational decision making; incorporating small and large changes to centre operations and processes which have a positive environmental impact
- Preventing pollution wherever possible and practicable by developing non-polluting practices
- Sourcing electricity for the centre common areas that originates from 100% renewable sources
- Communicating ways in which the local community can engage and contribute to centre sustainability initiatives

Our Environmental Goals
- Reduce our carbon footprint
- Improve energy efficiency within all common parts of the centre
- Promote the reduction, re-use and recycling of our waste and focus on waste minimisation
- Ensuring safe and efficient storage and disposal of all waste
- Educate all stakeholders
Fareham Shopping Centre is proud that it is achieving 0% to landfill and has seen increases in recycling streams including glass, cardboard, and dry mixed waste recycling. Items that cannot be recycled are used by our waste contractor partners to support renewable energy. A phased replacement of lighting to LED in the mall areas and back of house has achieved a 19% reduction in energy consumption since 2019.
