Fighting climate change
Planet - Sustainable, greener, and cleaner future.
In the quest for a more sustainable tomorrow, HSO embraces a holistic approach to sustainability. Unwaveringly committed to reducing carbon footprint and maximising supply chain opportunities. Our vision encompasses more than just environmental responsibility; it embodies a philosophy of harmonising growth and innovation with a profound respect for the planet.
Embedding sustainable practices
HSO is committed to environmental excellence and pollution prevention. It works to surpass industry standards and lessen our impact on the local and global environment by conserving energy, water, and other natural resources; reducing waste generation; recycling and reducing our use of toxic materials. Emphasising efficient resourcing, responsible procurement, and innovation, HSO strives for a greener future.
By combining HSOs expertise as a Microsoft solutions provider with the power of Microsoft’s sustainable technologies and solutions, we’re able to support customers in achieving their net zero goals. To find more about how we can do this and help your organisation, please read page 10 of our latest Social Value brochure which can be found here:
https://www.hso.com/media/j15bdjwu/hso-social-value-brochure-2024-2.pdf

Prosperity - Skills, opportunity, and liberating lives.
A prosperous economy supports thriving communities and, in turn, people. HSO's commitment to ethical business practices, giving back to our communities, fair trade and responsible sourcing, ensures our growth and success go hand in hand with the well-being of wider communities.
Supporting the wider community: HSO works with multiple charities. For 2023/24, these are The Stroke Association, British Heart Foundation, and Alzheimer’s Research UK. To date, HSO's employees have raised over £114,000 for charity, which HSO has matched.
Putting technology and skills to good use: As well as time and money, HSO uses our skills to help non-profit organisations do more, eg. during lockdown, KidsOut, faced volunteer shortages affecting toy distribution to children in care and living in refuges. HSO built an app to streamline toy box scanning and tracking nationwide. Before this, KidsOut used a paper-based system to manage toy donations. The app removed time-consuming manual tasks, aiding volunteers, enabling growth and ensured efficient delivery despite employee / volunteer limitations.
Local economic development: HSO people are encouraged to involve themselves in local economic development initiatives. This can involve infrastructure projects or community facilities, leading to new business opportunities and job creation.
Education and training initiatives: HSO works with organisations to support training and apprenticeship programmes. This bridges the skills gap by offering practical, industry-specific training to individuals seeking to enter work.
By combining HSOs expertise as a Microsoft solutions provider with the power of Microsoft’s sustainable technologies and solutions, we are able to support you achieve your organisation's goals, improving lives of those in your community. Please read our latest Social Value brochure:
