NHS Shared Business Services

We are committed to incorporating sustainability into all aspects of our business.

At NHS SBS, we are committed to ensuring our services help to improve health outcomes, reduce the impact on the planet and deliver our services with purpose.

We believe that long term value comes from seeing success as part of a bigger picture encompassing people, the planet, and a sustainable business. Through our Sustainability and Social Value team, executive sponsorship and all of our colleagues, we work to ensure our business can support and enable sustainable economies, communities and the NHS.

Our colleagues at NHS SBS are passionate about working for a sustainable organisation and they care about ensuring the work we do has a positive impact, which is why we strive to embed this into everything we do.

Our success as an organisation - and our ability to make a meaningful difference - means that we must consider the impacts of our business in all of these areas and determine how best we can apply our capabilities and resources to address them.
