CSR
Q-Park takes social responsibility
We want to take care of the vulnerable in society, who may need extra help due to personal challenges. It is, among other things, homeless or vulnerable children and young people. We do this by giving donations and financial contributions to organizations that work to give them a better everyday life
We take responsibility for the environment:
We continuously work towards a greener way of doing business, by supporting sustainable development and creating positive impacts in society.
One of the initiatives we have taken to move in this direction is to convert our electricity purchases to 100% CO2-netural wind energy.
