Corporate Responsibility

At Ace Outdoors we take our corporate environmental responsibility very seriously. We try to minimise impact on the places we use for our adventure activities.

• Where possible we work with landowners to limit the impact of our outdoor activities on the local environment. We always take out whatever we take in and clear litter where we find it. All of our group activities and outdoor education programmes aim to leave places better than how we found them, promoting good environmental practice.
• At crags and other sensitive upland environments we carry out all human waste and associated litter. In this way we are helping to keep places as we wish to find them for the future and help to protect them from harm.
• We try to keep our carbon footprint small and encourage car sharing between venues.
• We support locally produced goods and services.
• We try our best to help fragile rural/upland economies by sourcing goods and services locally. Where possible we make use of local co-operatives and organic food suppliers, particularly for our vegetarian and vegan all-inclusive holidays.
• We recycle.
• Where possible we look at ways of reducing the paper we use and use only items that have been made from recycled or sustainable sources.
• We buy and sell fairly.
• We are committed to buying and selling Fair trade products where possible.
• Beyond this, we trade ethically, paying all of our suppliers fairly and on time.
• When you attend one our courses we'll always offer you a cup of Fair Trade tea, coffee or hot chocolate before and after your course.
• Lastly, we are Vegans.

We take great pride in the welfare of animals and people very seriously. Everyone is welcome on our courses, however, only vegetarian or vegan meals will be provided on our all-inclusive residential adventure packages.
