Caring for our planet, people, and wildlife
At The Skye Inn, we make great efforts to follow good sustainability practices to minimise the environmental impact of our operations and to help protect our natural and historic surroundings. How We Tread Right (HWTR) is The Travel Corporation’s (TTC) new five-year sustainability strategy, which sets the mandate on sustainability at The Skye Inn and our sister travel companies.
Our strategy is based on 11 measurable goals developed to address our impact on Planet, People, and Wildlife. These goals, anchored to the United Nations’ Global Goals, address:
Three Pillars of TreadRight
Planet
Sustainability and conservation by targeting climate change, sustainable food production and responsible consumption through carbon management, renewable energy, the food cycle, waste reduction, and the elimination of single-use plastics.
People
Community support and cultural preservation by targeting overtourism through the inclusion of new MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® experiences, the creation of a standalone strategy to encourage greater diversity and inclusion at The Skye Inn, and our global give-back efforts.
Wildlife
Conservation and protection by targeting animal welfare and conservation, and ethical wildlife experiences through TreadRight’s Animal Welfare Policy.
How We Tread Right
Staying at The Skye Inn means choosing an accommodation that puts sustainability and the planet at the core of everything we do.
The TreadRight Foundation
The TreadRight Foundation is a not-for-profit organization created as a joint initiative by The Skye Inn and our sister brands under The Travel Corporation’s (TTC). TreadRight’s mission is clear; to have a positive impact on the people and communities we visit, to protect wildlife and marine life, and to care for the planet we call home. TreadRight has supported some 60-plus sustainable tourism projects worldwide to date. Support is provided through donations and grants to leading partners across the sustainable travel spectrum. These projects all fall under the three pillars of TreadRight: Planet, People, Wildlife.
