Social value
Powering positive change.
As an electrical contracting company, we believe the value of our work goes beyond the installation itself. Every project gives us an opportunity to support local people, strengthen communities, develop skills and reduce our environmental impact.
We are committed to delivering social value alongside high-quality electrical services, working responsibly with our clients, employees, supply chain and the communities in which we operate.
Creating local employment & skills
We believe in investing in people and building skills for the future of our industry. Wherever possible, we aim to create opportunities for local employment, apprenticeships, training and work experience.
By supporting the development of qualified electricians and the next generation of skilled tradespeople, we can contribute to long-term careers while helping address the skills needs of the electrical and wider construction sectors.
Supporting local businesses
Where practical, we look to source goods and services from local suppliers, SMEs and responsible businesses. This helps keep investment within the communities where we work, supports local employment and builds stronger, more resilient supply chains.
Supporting our communities
We aim to make a positive contribution to the communities surrounding our projects. This can include supporting local initiatives, schools, charities and community organisations, as well as providing our time, skills and expertise where they can make a meaningful difference.
A more sustainable future
As electrical contractors, we recognise the important role our industry plays in the transition towards a lower-carbon future.
We are committed to reducing waste, using materials and resources responsibly and continually looking for ways to minimise the environmental impact of our operations. Where relevant to our projects, we also support clients in adopting more energy-efficient electrical solutions and technologies.
Health, safety & wellbeing
Creating social value also means looking after the people who deliver our work. Health and safety remain fundamental to everything we do, alongside promoting employee wellbeing, providing a supportive working environment and treating everyone with fairness and respect.
Delivering measurable social value
We want our commitments to result in genuine outcomes. Where required by our clients and contracts, we can establish project-specific social value objectives and monitor our contribution through measures such as local employment, apprenticeships and training, local supply-chain expenditure, community activities and environmental improvements.
