Sustainability at Cabot Circus
At Cabot Circus, we're proud to be part of something bigger — a mission to make a real difference for Brizzle and beyond. We're operated by Hammerson, a company committed to leaving a positive impact: socially, environmentally and economically.
The big goal? To be Net Positive by 2030. That means giving back more than we take — across carbon, water, resources, and community.

What we’re doing at Cabot Circus
We're already making moves to shrink our footprint and uplift our community — but we’re just getting started.
Cutting carbon
We’ve slashed our electricity use by 13% — enough to power 135 Bristol homes for a year.
Saving water
Water consumption dropped by 38%, saving the equivalent of 4 Olympic-sized swimming pools.
Rethinking waste
We recycled 65% of our waste — that’s 735 tonnes, or about four blue whales’ worth.
Where we’re heading
Here’s what’s on our radar as we keep pushing forward:
- Switching to LED lighting across Back of House areas to boost energy efficiency
- Recycling coffee cups right here on site, cutting down transport emissions
- Supporting biodiversity through green projects around the centre
- Partnering with local schools and offering work experience opportunities
- Sponsoring Bristol Young Heroes Awards with Community of Purpose
Because championing creativity and community shouldn’t cost the earth. And at Cabot Circus, we’re making sure it doesn’t.
