Hi everyone! We are excited to share that we've published the Nitrous oxide toolkit: Reducing waste in NHS trusts, which we developed with NHSEngland. 

We hope this is helpful for all areas that use nitrous oxide (anaesthesia and dentistry) and also nitrous oxide/oxygen mixture (Entonox) which, in particular, we hope can help maternity teams to reduce waste

Thank you to all the NHS staff who have contributed their time and efforts to create the toolkit and help ensure that it provides useful and enduring advice for those working to reduce nitrous oxide emissions in healthcare. A special thanks to Alifia Chakera, Head of Pharmaceutical Sustainability at NHS Scotland, whose leadership of the national Nitrous Oxide Project has been instrumental. Her relentless advocacy has driven meaningful improvements for both patient care and the planet.
