Reporting Standard
This Carbon Reduction Plan has been completed in accordance with Procurement Policy Note (PPN) 006 – Taking Account of Carbon Reduction Plans in the Procurement of Major Government Contracts and the associated Technical Standard for the Completion of Carbon Reduction Plans.
Where applicable, greenhouse gas emissions will be measured, reported and verified in accordance with:
* The Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard.
* UK Government Environmental Reporting Guidelines.

* Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) guidance, where applicable.
Baseline Emissions
Baseline Year 2026
This is the first Carbon Reduction Plan produced by Welland & Glen Home Care Limited. Accordingly, 2026 has been adopted as the baseline year from which future carbon reduction performance will be measured.
The organisation is implementing processes to accurately identify, collect and verify greenhouse gas emissions across its operations. Annual reporting will enable meaningful comparison against this baseline and demonstrate continual improvement.
Baseline Emissions Data
The organisation is currently establishing its first verified greenhouse gas inventory.
| Emission Source | Baseline Year (2026) |
|---|---|
| Scope 1 | Baseline measurement being established |
| Scope 2 | Baseline measurement being established |
| Scope 3 (Included Sources) | Baseline measurement being established |
| Total Gross Emissions (tCO₂e) | To be reported following completion of the first reporting cycle |
As this is the first Carbon Reduction Plan produced by Welland & Glen Home Care Limited, the organisation is currently establishing its baseline greenhouse gas inventory. Verified emissions data is not yet available. The company has implemented procedures to collect, monitor and report Scope 1, Scope 2 and relevant Scope 3 emissions annually. Future Carbon Reduction Plans will include quantified emissions data together with progress against reduction targets.
