Jump is an instrument that facilitates positive change by empowering staff to put University's values and goals into action.
Sustainable Strathclyde's Team Jump is an engagement programme that rewards Strathclyde students and staff for taking part in a range of sustainability and wellbeing related actions. There are prizes for best teams and individuals, including vouchers and donations to charities.
One of last year’s top points earners said:
Jump made me more aware of my impact on the environment and provided me with tips on health, recycling and sustainability. It was fun and engaging and brought out my competitive streak I didn't know I had.
To date, through Jump, Strathclyders have collectively:
- avoided the emission of over 120 tons of CO2 which is taking the University much closer to meeting our emissions reduction targets
- saved 15,990 disposable cups
- avoided 3,012 journeys to Edinburgh-worth of carbon emissions.
