Our internal procedures held in our Quality System are reviewed regularly and are made available to all colleagues. Training and support on these procedures is provided where necessary.

Our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has ultimate accountability for quality, with the Head of Corporate Governance responsible for monitoring compliance across the business. All colleagues have their own responsibility within their areas of work. Collectively it is everyone’s responsibility to ensure that quality is embedded in everything we do, across the whole of the company.
