We feel responsible for our local community and its future.

Leading by example in our journey towards becoming carbon neutral both at home and away, wherever and however we can. We strive to create a movement of positive action amongst the audiences, participants, venue partners, communities and people we work with. We know that everyone is at different stages of their environmental journey and here, we aim to capture the twists and turns of both our zero carbon adventures and those we collaborate with.

We are committed to:

  • Ensuring annual green /environmental training day for all staff & trustees

  • Recycling scenery, props and costumes into new productions or gift to charity shops and other local theatre companies

  • Ensuring our Green Rider is sent to all touring venues and discussed in advance

  • Using green and ethical suppliers, shopping locally where possible

  • Continuing to monitor and evaluate our impact, contributing to industry benchmarking

  • Advocating for positive environmental change within our company and community

We have:

  • Installed bike racks at our Centre for Movement, encouraging cycling and walking to staff and participants

  • Enabled our Dance Artists to travel by electric vehicle to all tour dates and workshops

  • Facilitated good waste management practice at our studios

We're proud to be part of the Greener Footprints 30 for 2030, a group of sustainable businesses and organisations taking a leading role in the county’s response to the climate emergency. The initiative is part of the Greener Footprints campaign, launched by the Herefordshire Climate and Nature Action Partnership in January 2022. We hope that our choices inspire other businesses and individuals to make better choices for the environment.

How can you help?

  • Travelling to us?

    Choose life, choose a bike. Or why not walk to our studios or shows.
    Alternatively organise a lift share with others in your class or those you are going to see a show with.

  • Dancing with us?

    When you visit our Centre for Movement please bring a reusable water bottle with you. You can fill this up in our kitchen. We want to say goodbye to single use plastic. Help us to be greener.

  • Championing us

    In order to make change we need to talk about change. Tell your friends, spread the word and get on board with our environmental plans. Let us know what more we can and should be doing.
