Investors in the Environment
Living and working in such a beautiful part of the world is our daily reminder that we have a responsibility to protect the nature that surrounds us. The three counties we cover – Cumbria, County Durham and Northumberland – are home to three Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and three National Parks.
At Highlights we are always working very hard to improve our sustainability, whether this is reducing the amount we print, helping our venues find ways to reduce their carbon footprint, or the smaller, simpler things such as car-sharing amongst the staff and using a local milk vending machine for our morning coffees. You can read more about our sustainable journey below.
Programming
Marketing and Print
All of our marketing materials – brochures, posters, flyers, postcards – are printed and supplied by two local, sustainable businesses. Both Cerberus Printing in Kirkby Stephen, and HH Reeds in Penrith, are members of the Woodland Trust Carbon Capture scheme. This means carbon from all the paper we use is offset by planting new woodland in the UK.
