Why it’s important for businesses to invest in ESG

Anna Russell, Director of ESG at Bupa Global & UK, leads Bupa’s environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) strategy, which includes: community investment engagement, net zero strategy (using science-based targets), reducing overall environmental footprint and advocating for better people and planet health. She also heads up the Bupa Foundation – a charity funded entirely by Bupa which runs and funds practical projects to support people's wellbeing.

At Bupa, we’re committed to making a better world, because the climate change emergency is a major threat to our own health, as well as the planet’s.

Food waste in Bupa care homes and at the Cromwell Hospital is recycled into biogas, 100% of our electricity comes from renewable sources and we’ve invested over £23m in eco-friendly technology. You can find out more about our sustainability initiatives on our Sustainability Hub.
