We are proud of Brooke Dillon, our Aboriginal Cultural Advisor, and Aunty Rosalie, our Tactical Response Aunty at Acacia Prison, who recently featured on Yorgas Yarning, a 100.9fm Noongar Radio show, sharing insights into the transformative work being done to support First Nations men in our care. “First and foremost, my job is obviously to keep the men in our care safe but that is the base line for us we don’t want to just keep people safe we want to make sure their supported to thrive and they are connected to their culture, their community and people like Aunty Rosalie.” Brooke said. “[Aunty] is exactly what our prisons need to keep our communities strong, safe and thriving and when our fellas see our community showing up for them in their house, in the prison they feel a sense of worth and a sense of pride.” Committed to supporting positive outcomes for First Nations men in our care led to the creation of a Cultural Centre within the facility. This Centre was designed and established by Indigenous men to promote their autonomy and cultivate a sense of identity, connection, and resilience in the community. This centre, a unique initiative in Western Australian correctional facilities, empowers men to heal, learn, and connect with their culture and land.

A message from our Group Chief Executive, Mark Irwin, on World Environment Day 2024: 🌎 Serco’s purpose is to impact a better future, and environmental sustainability goes to the very heart of that. Today, on #WorldEnvironmentDay, we are renewing our commitment to drive progress in meaningful ways to address climate change. Impact is front and centre in everything we do, and as Serco’s Group Chief Executive, I see that determination to make a positive difference and have a real impact right across Serco, in every colleague I meet and every worksite I visit. We’ve recently refocused our ambitions for the environment and wider approach to ESG, pledging to measure our positive impact on People, Place and Planet. Under Planet, we’re committed to reducing our carbon emissions under the Science Based Targets initiative. I’m happy to say we’re making good progress towards our net zero goal: Our carbon emissions from our operations fell 18.4% between 2022 and 2023 📉 47% of our total electricity usage is renewably sourced, up from 27% in 2022 ⚡ Electric & hybrid vehicles now make up nearly a third of our fleet 🚗 We know there’s more to do and we’re laser-focused on continuing to drive down our carbon emissions, contributing to the net zero and nature recovery ambitions of our value chain partners, and reducing our environmental footprint.
