Fighting climate change
Our commitment to environmental sustainability is demonstrated through our robust environmental policy which minimises physical resource usage by adopting reduced printing practices and fully electronic document and invoicing systems. Furthermore, we encourage eco-friendly transportation options through our Cycle to Work (C2W) and Employee Electric Vehicle (EV) Scheme. These initiatives collectively contribute to reducing the carbon footprint associated with our operations and those of our clients, supporting the UK's transition to a greener economy.Covid-19 recovery
In response to COVID-19, we have launched a Digital Skills Academy to boost technological proficiency across public services, enhancing remote working capabilities and resilience. Additionally, our commitment under the Pledge 1% initiative sees our staff volunteering to support communities affected by the pandemic, directly aiding recovery efforts by strengthening community ties and fostering digital inclusion.Tackling economic inequality
Our approach to tackling economic inequality centres around digital empowerment through our Digital Skills and Code Club initiatives, which aim to equip individuals from diverse backgrounds with critical tech skills. This effort is complemented by our collaborative supply chain and partnership strategies that promote economic growth and opportunity within underserved communities, thereby fostering a more equitable digital economy.Equal opportunity
We advocate for equal opportunities through our Skills Academy and adherence to the Living Wage Foundation’s guidelines, ensuring fair compensation for all employees regardless of their role or background. This foundation enables us to attract a diverse workforce and create an inclusive environment where all employees can thrive, thereby enriching our service delivery and client relationships.Wellbeing
Our commitment to wellbeing is embodied in our comprehensive health offerings, including partnerships with Westfield Health, access to counselling services, and subscriptions to Headspace and Blinkist to support mental and intellectual growth. These benefits are extended to our employees and are part of our proposals to clients, ensuring that wellbeing is at the forefront of our workplace culture and service delivery.
