We’re dedicated to creating a healthier NHS and improving health outcomes for all. But we also believe that our role as a healthcare consultancy goes beyond just providing expertise and solutions. It extends to making a positive impact on our communities and environment through our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives.
To this end, we have established a CSR committee that actively engages our employees. As a committee, we regularly evaluate and identify the most effective ways to enhance our positive impact on both local communities and the environment. By leveraging our expertise, embracing new ideas and fostering partnerships, we aim to create lasting change that positively influences the health of individuals, communities and our environment.
CHARITY PARTNERSHIP
Since June 2023, we have partnered with NHS Charities Together, raising funds to support their commitment to help the NHS go further for its staff and patients to ensure everyone has better healthcare in the future.
We have taken part in several fundraising activities, including hosting an NHS Big Tea as part of the organisation’s 75th birthday celebrations and some of our team members running the Hackney Half Marathon.
You can read more about their work here.
We look forward to raising money for this great cause for many years to come!

NET ZERO & UN SUSTAINABILITY GOALS
In July 2022, the NHS became the first health system in the world to embed net zero into legislation. It set two ambitious targets:
• For emissions it controls directly, to reach net zero by 2040 with an ambition to reach an 80% reduction by 2028 to 2032.
• For emissions it can influence, to reach net zero by 2045 with an ambition to reach an 80% reduction by 2036 to 2039.
There is also a roadmap for NHS suppliers to reach net zero by 2030. You can read more here.
We are committed to reaching net zero as quickly as we can. Our co-working space (Work.Life) is a B Corp-registered company and we are always looking at ways in which we can be more sustainable. Our impact report provides more detail here.
We have also decided on three United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to focus on, that closely align with our values and vision, and where we feel we can make the biggest difference.
• good health & wellbeing
• quality education
• and climate action.
Thanks to our close working relationship with the NHS and our partnership with NHS Charities, as well as our training platform, Evolve Learning, and our ongoing sustainability journey, we know we can take tangible action on each of these.
