Carbon Reduction Plan (2025–2030)

1. Commitment to Net Zero

RollaDome All Skates is committed to reducing its carbon emissions and supporting the UK Government’s ambition to achieve Net Zero by 2050. As a community-based organisation delivering sport, physical activity, and employability programmes, we recognise our responsibility to minimise environmental impact while maximising social value.

Our Carbon Reduction Plan sets out a proportionate and practical approach to managing and reducing carbon emissions.

2. Organisational Context

RollaDome All Skates is a UK-based Charity delivering:

Community sport and physical activity programmes
Youth employability and skills pathways
Events, outreach, and partnership-led delivery across London

Delivery is primarily venue-based, community-embedded, and partnership-driven, which informs our emissions profile and reduction priorities.

3. Baseline Emissions Footprint (2024)

As a small to medium Charity organisation, RollaDome All Skates has undertaken a baseline qualitative and quantitative assessment of its emissions across the following scopes:

Scope 1 – Direct Emissions

No owned vehicles
No on-site fuel combustion
Estimated impact: Minimal

Scope 2 – Indirect Emissions (Energy)

Electricity use within hired venues and office spaces
Utilities largely controlled by venue operators
Estimated impact: Low to moderate

Scope 3 – Indirect Emissions
Primary sources include:

Staff, volunteer, and participant travel
Procurement of goods and services (equipment, uniforms, materials)
Waste generated during events and programmes
Estimated impact: Moderate (largest emissions source)

This baseline will be refined as data collection improves.

Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement (2024–2025)

1. Organisational Structure and Activities

RollaDome All Skates is a UK-based Charity organisation delivering community sport, physical activity, youth development, and employability programmes. Our work is delivered primarily through partnerships with local authorities, schools, community venues, and other voluntary sector organisations.

We operate exclusively within the UK and do not have overseas offices or supply chains.

2. Our Commitment

RollaDome All Skates is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all aspects of our operations and supply chains. We recognise our responsibility to act ethically, transparently, and with integrity, and we are committed to safeguarding the rights and dignity of all individuals connected to our work.

Although we are not legally required to publish a statement under the Modern Slavery Act 2015 due to our size, we do so voluntarily as part of our commitment to good governance and responsible practice.

3. Policies and Governance

We have policies and procedures in place that support our approach to preventing modern slavery, including:

Safeguarding and child protection policies
Equality, diversity, and inclusion policies
Safer recruitment practices
Code of conduct for staff, volunteers, and contractors
Whistleblowing procedures

These policies are reviewed periodically and are embedded within our organisational culture and delivery practice.

4. Risk Assessment

Given the nature and scale of our operations, RollaDome All Skates considers the risk of modern slavery and human trafficking within our direct operations to be low.

Potential risk areas, though limited, may include:

Procurement of goods and services (e.g. equipment, uniforms, materials)
Use of third-party contractors or suppliers

We mitigate these risks through proportionate due diligence and by working primarily with reputable UK-based suppliers and partners.

5. Due Diligence and Supply Chains

Our supply chains are short, predominantly UK-based, and typically involve low-risk goods and services. We take reasonable and proportionate steps to ensure that suppliers and partners operate ethically and in compliance with applicable laws.

These steps include:

Selecting suppliers with transparent and reputable business practices
Avoiding suppliers where concerns about labour practices are identified
Raising awareness of ethical standards with partners where appropriate

6. Training and Awareness

We promote awareness of modern slavery and human trafficking through:

Safeguarding training for staff and volunteers
Clear reporting routes for concerns or suspicions
A culture that encourages openness, challenge, and accountability

Where relevant, staff involved in procurement or partnership working are made aware of their responsibilities in identifying and responding to potential risks.

7. Effectiveness and Continuous Improvement

RollaDome All Skates is committed to continuous improvement in identifying and mitigating risks related to modern slavery. We will:

Review this statement annually
Monitor changes to our operations and supply chains
Update policies and practices as required

As the organisation grows, we will strengthen our processes in a manner that remains proportionate and appropriate to our scale.

8. Approval and Declaration

This statement has been approved by the senior leadership of RollaDome All Skates and reflects our commitment to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking.
