Today we launch our Climate Emergency strategy setting out the steps we will take to provide zero carbon care, clean air and zero waste
Newcastle Hospitals became the first healthcare organisation in the world to declare a climate emergency in June 2019.
By joining with Newcastle City Council and Newcastle University we have created a civic partnership, that has resulted in Newcastle upon Tyne being the first city in the world to have all three anchor institutions declare a climate emergency and commit to fast tracking carbon reductions in line with the science.
Today we introduce our new climate emergency strategy
Our vision is to be a global leader in sustainable healthcare delivery through collaboration and innovation. To help our patients and communities to thrive within the means of our planet.
Dame Jackie Daniel, Chief Executive
We have three main long term goals:
- Zero carbon care
- Clean air
- Zero waste

The greatest threat to the climate is the belief that someone else will save it.
