This week, the COP 24 conference revealed the urgent action we need to take to protect our environment and find solutions to stop climate change. At M&S, we believe we can’t treat climate change in isolation to gain traction as it’s intrinsically linked with gender equality and livelihoods. Our goal at M&S is clear: We want to ensure we tackle climate change as well as protecting the livelihoods of the fantastic producers in our supply chain. That’s why, we’ve been tackling cross-cutting issues in our coffee supply chain through collaborative action.

At M&S we go the extra mile when it comes to sourcing standards and sustainability. As an own-label retailer, we know how our denim is made and where the beans for our Fairtrade coffee are grown.

Our trusted value promise means customers can be confident that great value M&S products are sourced with care for the planet and for the people who supply them too.

Hear from Victoria McKenzie-Gould, Executive Sponsor of Inclusion and Diversity & M&S colleagues about the inclusive ideas we're putting into action.

The theme of this year’s National Inclusion Week is Time to Act: The Power of Now.
