Sustainability

Bath & North East Somerset Council is committed to addressing the causes and effects of climate change and is a Beacon Council for Waste.

 

The Fashion Museum seeks to become ever more sustainable and to reduce its carbon footprint:

 

  • We use low energy light bulbs in the chandelier 
  • LED lighting was installed in the Panorama Room display cases in 2010 to replace less efficient lighting.
  • Energy-efficient lighting is used throughout the building
  • Better switches, low energy bulbs and good housekeeping have reduced energy use.
  • We use ethically-sourced tea and coffee in the cafe.
  • We use local ingredients as much as possible in our cooking.
  • Our shops use recyclable paper bags and 100% biodegradable carrier bags.
  • We are committed to recycling.
