  Fighting climate change

  We continually monitor the environmental impact of our activities. This monitoring shows that our primary sources of carbon production are cloud consumption and travel. We take account of reported emissions in the selection of our cloud providers and monitor their impact. We have a history of prioritising remote working and other means of minimising travel. When travel is essential, we endeavour to select the most sustainable means, which is generally the train, for UK and European travel.

  Tackling economic inequality

  A core of our organisational development is to invest in the skills and training of our employees. Backed by the necessary resources, this includes achieving recognised qualification in areas of scarcity. We regularly partner with other SMEs to grow the value of the supply chain and provide greater depth of expertise to customers. In addition, we donate at least 1% of turnover to charity each year. Our donations, focus on promoting health and addressing disadvantage and hardship.

  Equal opportunity

  We are fully committed to equality in our recruiting and working practices. Flexible working is fully supported, allowing greater access to employment opportunities. We are pro-active at taking opportunities to make progress for disadvantaged groups.

  Wellbeing

  We closely monitor the wellbeing of our team and have evolved working practices to do so effectively while remote working. We offer flexible working and comprehensive training and development of our people. Our team contribute to the broader community through charity time, which is an individual entitlement.
