Social Responsibility

Sport21 is committed at all times to conducting our business in a responsible and sustainable way, as it is integral to the way that we do business. We are committed to behaving in a way that is beneficial to all stakeholders, our environment and the wider community.
We recognise 5 key areas that contribute to corporate social responsibility: our customers, our people, our local communities, our suppliers and our environment.

Our customers

We continually work to ensure that we are providing the best service for our customers. We ensure that our communications with customers are clear, whilst we endeavour to provide products that meet their varied needs.

Our people

We respect and value the things that make our staff individuals and we’re committed to creating a culture of inclusion and diversity.
We believe that supporting individual growth and development helps us attract and retain talented individuals.

Our local communities

We believe in and support our local communities.
We’re keen to support colleagues who volunteer or fundraise for charity and can provide time off and company support to facilitate time in the community.

Our suppliers

Our reputation is very important to us and to help protect this, we won’t knowingly do business with any organisation that doesn’t share our commitment to dealing with stakeholders fairly and ethically. Our approach to procurement is based on the principles of competitive tendering and dealing with suppliers in a fair and open manner.

Our environment

We believe in the principle of caring for the environment and continually strive to incorporate environmental good practice into our workplace, taking a sustainable approach to waste management and minimising our use of resources across the business.
We are focussed on improving our energy efficiency, managing our waste responsibly and reducing our carbon emissions. Having taken large steps in our commitment to delivering a paperless office, minimising business travel is also an important part of our work and we provide teleconferencing facilities to help colleagues reduce the need to travel for meetings.
We recognise our responsibility to do business in a manner that protects and improves the environment for our future generations.
