We’re committed to keeping people well and supporting a healthy planet.
In 2011 Bupa made a commitment to keep people well and support a healthy planet. We will use our healthcare expertise to empower millions of people around the world to make positive changes to be healthier and happier.
We've also committed to improving the health of planet so it can better support healthy people. Over the next five years we will reduce our direct and indirect carbon footprint and our water use in water stressed regions, whilst also empowering people with the tools they need to make changes that improve their own health and the health of the planet.
The challenge presented by modern lifestyles and ageing populations is one that increasingly affects developing and developed economies across the world. The way we live our lives, characterised by low levels of physical activity and unhealthy eating habits, increases our risk of developing chronic diseases, such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease and lung disease. Ageing populations present health systems and governments around the world with the challenge of how to provide high quality care to more and more people.
Our status as a business without any shareholders allows us to go further than other organisations, reinvesting our profits to help people to lead longer, healthier, happier lives.
We've been doing this for decades but we want to go further to help millions of people around the world lead longer, healthier, happier lives too.
