Summary:imageA special issue of our Healthy Futures publications, this issue focuses on the most recent version of the Good Corporate Citizenship Assessment Model, an online resource to help NHS organisations understand their progress on sustainable development.

Good corporate citizenship describes how NHS organisations can embrace sustainable development and tackle health inequalities through their day to day activities: how they develop their workforce, purchase goods and services, organise travel, manage their land and resources, and how they design, construct and run their buildings. Acting as a good corporate citizen makes good business sense and can help your organisation achieve a wide range of benefits – including saving money.

The Good Corporate Citizenship Assessment Model is an online tool to help NHS organisations assess their progress on sustainable development, find inspiration and share ideas. The tool includes: a self assessment test to monitor your organisation’s progress on sustainable development; guidance on how to develop good corporate citizenship in your organisation; and case studies, resources and a networking forum.
