When it comes to responsible tourism, you need to walk the walk. So in 2020, we published our first environment and sustainability strategy How We Tread Right (HWTR), which lays out our 5-year commitment to global sustainability goals.
This is our roadmap to achieve sustainable development for Costsaver and our sister brands, with support from our not-for-profit organisation, the TreadRight Foundation.
Our HWTR goals are underpinned by the United Nations Sustainability Development Goals (SDGs), which work to positively uplift wildlife, people, and the planet by acting as a global blueprint for sustainable development. In 2023, we published our second-ever Impact Report, sharing the progress we've made and the positive steps we’re taking toward climate action; sustainable food production; responsible consumption; travel experiences; diversity, equity and inclusion; and animal welfare.
