For any modern growing business, having an approach to the impact of climate change, supporting local communities, ensuring responsible business practices, and the creation of a quality working environment are all a core part of business strategy.

Social value is becoming increasingly more important in the markets we operate in, and we are committed to being market-leading in our approach to delivering the benefits back to our communities.
Our Social Value Policy is reviewed annually and reflects current legislation, best practice and approaches for delivering improved outcomes. By raising awareness of our policy and with support from our employees, customers, supply chain partners, and individuals and groups in our communities, we can continue to generate positive impact.

We deliver our social value to our customers on an individual basis, allowing us to understand our customer’s commitment as well as the market requirements. We have covered social value in the following sectors: local and central government, housing, health, utilities, and charities.
