Environmental Policy

A new Environmental Policy, detailing the College's commitment to energy savings and a sustainable environment, is now available. The document explains that it is the College's policy to work towards a sustainable environment. In doing this ncn will aspire to awareness and understanding of local, national and global environmental issues and, through its own practices, strive to conserve, sustain and improve the environment. To find out more about how this applies to your area, and ways in which we can all help with energy saving, please view the policy document and find out more...
