Worthing charity launches next phase of eco improvements to its home for veterans
Worthing-based charity Care for Veterans has launched the next phase of their green project to help protect the environment.
Since 2017, several eco-friendly improvements have been made to the 60-bed facility which supports disabled veterans, and now their sights have been set on the next big goal – replacing their eight 16-year-old boilers.
CEO of Care for Veterans Andy Neaves said: “To compensate for the CO2 our current boilers generate, we would need to plant 2,000 trees on an area the size of two football pitches. The only way for us to reduce this negative environmental impact, is to replace the boilers. In doing so, we will cease to emit around 50 tonnes of CO2 every year.”
