Description
This session showcases how Sheffield Teaching Hospitals redesigned the walking‑aid pathway into a sustainable, system‑wide reuse model that cuts carbon, reduces costs, and improves patient safety. By partnering with local authorities, community organisations and logistics teams, the Trust created a repeatable process that refurbished nearly 1,000 items in six months while embedding sustainability into governance and clinical practice.
