St Johns Shopping Centre Champions Sustainability and Community in 2024–25

St Johns Shopping Centre has reaffirmed its commitment to building a greener, fairer future with the release of its 2024–2025 Sustainability Report, showcasing major strides in environmental performance, social value, and responsible governance.
This year, the centre achieved zero waste to landfill for the third consecutive year, increased recycling by 3.4%, reduced food waste by 17%, and expanded its biodiversity initiatives. These included the introduction of rooftop beehives, bringing 80,000 bees to the centre—and Liverpool’s 65-metre “Living Wall,” featuring more than 14,000 plants.
Centre Director Neil Ashcroft highlighted the team’s dedication:
“Over the past year, St Johns has taken meaningful steps to place sustainability and community impact at the heart of everything we do. We appointed our first Sustainability Manager, strengthened our environmental commitments, and delivered every target we set out to achieve.”
The centre’s community outreach continues to grow, with initiatives like Just for Joy, supporting ten local charities through donations and volunteering.
Employee wellbeing and inclusion remain central to St Johns’ social agenda. All staff have received Dementia Friendly, Autism Awareness, and Diversity, Equity & Inclusion training, reinforcing the centre’s inclusive culture.
“We recognise that thriving communities drive stronger economies,” the report notes, underscoring the centre’s role as a responsible city stakeholder.
The first stage of ISO 14001 was completed, and looking ahead, St Johns plans to achieve full ISO 14001 Environmental Management System accreditation in 2026 by deepening its diversity and wellbeing initiatives and strengthening partnerships with educational and local organisations.
“Our mission is to continually improve our environmental performance, encourage equality, diversity and inclusion in the workplace, support our community, and maintain transparency across all our operations,” Ashcroft concluded.
