Bayfields shoots for carbon neutral certification

Bayfields Opticians and Audiologists earned the Carbon Neutral Audiology certification by calculating its carbon footprint across six of 35 Bayfields practices in the UK.

York, Harrogate and Headingly practices were among those which achieved the sustainability recognition by measuring their carbon footprint, such as emissions from client travel to and from the practice.

These were offset using the Net Zero Eyecare scheme, which purchases carbon credits on the practice's behalf from the Gold Standard marketplace, contributing to selected sustainability projects worldwide.

Megan Harper, sustainability manager at Bayfields, said: 'Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. It’s not just a corporate initiative — it’s a genuine commitment to making a positive impact on the environment.
