Another NHS Trust joins Jump

We are delighted to announce that Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals Trust has launched Shine Rewards, as the third NHS Trust to join Jump.

Shine Rewards, Behaviour Change and Net Zero

The programme launched to over 14,500 clinical and office staff, as one of the largest NHS Trusts in the UK. In light of the Delivering a Net Zero NHS, it is clear that our NHS Trusts are leading on the sustainability agenda with ambitious targets for the coming years.

Shine Rewards encourages a range of positive behaviours related to the Trust’s Key Action Areas and Climate Emergency Strategy. This includes activities around energy, waste, journeys, procurement, care and people.

Each activity helps individuals to boost sustainability and wellbeing with opportunities to share ideas and get others involved. Furthermore, through the Impact Dashboard, individuals can see the impact of their individual actions. This includes carbon emissions avoided, miles of active travel recorded or even bathtubs of water saved from going meat-free.

Sustainability for Newcastle

Amy Johnston, Sustainability Officer at The Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, says: “Shine Rewards brings together sustainability and wellbeing in an engaging and fun way. Shine will also help to bring our people together during these more uncertain times.

“We’re rewarding people for taking a whole range of actions that will help us reduce our environmental impact, and as one of the largest NHS Trusts in the UK we’re working to lead the way in delivering sustainable healthcare.”

Our NHS and the Coronavirus Pandemic

We have all witnessed the unrelenting pressure that the Coronavirus pandemic has placed on our NHS.

From supporting our key workers to clapping for our carers, public support for the NHS in the wake of the Coronavirus has highlighted how important it is to us as we face an unprecedented public health emergency.

Despite the pandemic affecting everyone differently, we know that our collective natural environment is tied to our individual health and wellbeing.

Sustainability for your NHS Trust

The Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust joins both Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) and Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) already participating in Jump.
