Our Commitment to Social Responsibility

We make sure all our staff are paid fairly, following the Living Wage Foundation’s guidelines to pay at least the living wage. We also focus on creating a positive, supportive workplace where everyone has equal opportunities and a good work-life balance.

When choosing suppliers, we only work with companies that meet high ethical standards. This means no child labour, and we make sure they follow the Modern Slavery Act. We also try to be as eco-friendly as possible, using sustainable materials and reducing waste.

In the community, we support local charities through donations and volunteering, and we encourage our team to get involved too. We’re committed to fair and diverse hiring practices, giving everyone a chance, no matter their background.

Equality and Diversity

We are committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse environment where everyone is treated fairly and respectfully. We believe that embracing equality and diversity is essential for creating a positive workplace and producing content that reflects the richness of society.

Our Commitment:

• Equality: We ensure that everyone, regardless of their background, has equal opportunities in our organisation. This applies to all areas, including recruitment, staffing, and casting. All decisions are made based on merit and qualifications, free from bias or discrimination.

• Diversity: We value and celebrate differences in race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, religion, disability, and socio-economic background. By promoting diversity, we aim to bring a wide range of perspectives to our work and create content that resonates with a diverse audience.

• Inclusive Workplace: We are dedicated to providing a positive, welcoming, and supportive work environment for all employees, contractors, and partners. We encourage open communication, respect, and understanding between team members. Discrimination, harassment, or victimisation of any kind will not be tolerated.

• Casting and Representation: In our casting process, we actively seek diverse talent and ensure that different backgrounds and family structures are represented. We are committed to inclusivity, reflecting real-world diversity in our productions by casting individuals from various ethnicities, ages, abilities, and identities.

• Ongoing Efforts: We continuously review and update our practices to ensure they align with current best practices and legal requirements for equality and diversity. We welcome feedback and are committed to making meaningful changes to improve diversity and inclusion in all areas of our business. By upholding these values, we aim to create an environment where everyone feels valued and supported, and where we can deliver work that speaks to the diversity of the communities we serve.

Our Approach to Environmental Impact

We are committed to minimising the environmental impact of our services and operations. Here’s how we address and mitigate these impacts:

1. Environmental Policy

Our Environmental Policy focuses on reducing our carbon footprint and promoting sustainability across all areas of our business. We are dedicated to implementing practices that minimise waste, conserve resources, and protect the environment.

2. Sustainable Practices

• Energy Efficiency: We use energy-efficient equipment and lighting in our offices and production facilities. We also encourage remote working to reduce travel- related emissions.

• Waste Management: We have a comprehensive waste management program that includes recycling and reducing waste. We strive to use recyclable and compostable materials whenever possible.

• Resource Conservation: We aim to reduce paper usage by transitioning to digital documents and communication. We also make efforts to conserve water and energy in our daily operations.
  
  3. Eco-Friendly Materials

• Sourcing: We prioritise using environmentally friendly and sustainable materials in our projects. This includes selecting suppliers and products that align with our commitment to reducing environmental impact.

• Production: During production, we minimise the use of single-use plastics and aim to use materials that are recyclable or biodegradable.

  4. Sub-Contracted Services

• Selecting Partners: We work with subcontractors and suppliers who share our commitment to environmental sustainability. We evaluate their practices and ensure they meet our environmental standards.

• Monitoring: We regularly review the environmental practices of our

  subcontractors to ensure they align with our policies. This includes assessing their waste management, energy use, and material sourcing.

  5. Continuous Improvement

• Training: We provide ongoing training for our staff and subcontractors on best practices for reducing environmental impact.

• Feedback and Review: We regularly review and update our environmental practices based on feedback, new regulations, and advancements in sustainability. We encourage suggestions from our team and partners for further improvements.
  

  By following these guidelines, we aim to reduce our environmental footprint and contribute to a more sustainable future.
