Eldon Square Newcastle is putting sustainability at the heart of everything we do-working closely with our teams, retailers, and the local community to adopt eco-friendly practices and green technologies across daily operations.

We’re proud to involve the Newcastle community through events and partnerships that raise environmental awareness. The centre has already made key improvements, including energy-efficient lighting, water-saving systems, and smarter waste management.

We also encourage greener journeys by promoting walking, cycling, and public transport, helping reduce our collective carbon footprint. Together, we’re shaping a more sustainable shopping experience for everyone.

Eldon Square ESG Policy 2025

We care about making a difference in Newcastle and beyond – and we’re excited to launch our first ESG strategy. “We believe that creating meaningful impact for our community, our people, and our planet goes hand-in-hand with long-term success.

That’s why we’re committed to making our centre more sustainable, inclusive, and socially responsible. From reducing energy use and minimising our environmental footprint to supporting local charities and wellbeing initiatives, our ESG policy outlines how we’re taking action today and planning for a brighter, greener future for everyone who visits, works, or shops with us.” – Helen Cowie, Centre Director, Eldon Square.
