Our Commitment to Environmental, Social and Governance

As a trusted technology partner supporting the NHS and Local Authorities, we are committed to making a positive impact on the environment, our communities, and the wider economy. We are committed to creating positive environmental, social and economic outcomes that improve lives, strengthen communities and support a more sustainable future.

To measure and continually improve our performance, we undertake annual assessments of our ESG performance through EcoVadis, the globally recognised sustainability ratings platform. We also participate in the NHS Evergreen Sustainable Supplier Assessment, demonstrating our commitment to supporting the NHS's net zero and sustainability ambitions through continuous improvement and transparent reporting.

These independent assessments help us benchmark our progress, identify opportunities for improvement, and demonstrate our ongoing commitment to responsible and sustainable business practices.

Our Organisation & Governance

Clinical Safety, Data Privacy and Risk Management are at the core of everything we do. Robust governance underpins the clinical safety of our products and services, data governance ensures our client records are secure and corporate governance provides policies and procedures for best practice in how we operate.

Here are just a few of the ways in which we manage this:

We are committed to providing equal opportunities, equitable reward and pay and benefits that are informed by the external market. Our latest Gender Pay Gap Report shows that our mean gender pay gap has reduced, while also identifying where further progress is needed, particularly in increasing the representation of women in our highest-paid roles.
We publish our Modern Slavery Policy in line with UK Government legislation.
We ensure that our procurement and contracting processes support our ESG strategy and have implemented a Sustainable Procurement Policy and Supplier Code of Conduct.’
