Policy & Community

Taking action

The College has a sustainability policy which sets out our vision, approaches, identified key impacts and objectives. The policy was reviewed and redesigned in 2019 to bring it in line with current approaches to sustainability and to present the policy in an accessible and meaningful way - read the full sustainability_framework_2019.pdf here.

Working together

Sustainability at LMH is a collaborative effort involving the whole College community, and there are many wasy to get involved. The College has formed a working group with staff and students to provide focus and continuity for our sustainability initiatives, and takes part in the Green Impact scheme which gives everyone the opportunity to take part in sustainability projects. Annual Green Week and Fairtrade Fortnight events are open to everyone and are aimed at raising awareness and increasing engagement, as well as social media posts, lectures and film screenings throughout the year.

On a wider level, LMH is heavily involved in the Oxford College's Sustainability Guild which aims to bring together staff and students from across the Collegiate network to share ideas and practices. The College regularly support charities through community fundraising events and has partnered with the Oxford Hub to connect students with volunteering opportunities in the local area.
