Social Value Commitments

We are proud to outline our commitment to creating a sustainable, inclusive society and actively managing our operations in ways that optimise our value to the communities in which we work. At NGTC, our mission is to empower individuals and organisations with the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in a rapidly changing world. We believe that our work goes beyond providing high-quality training and education programs. It also involves a responsibility to create positive social value for the communities we serve.

SCOPE:

Our commitment to social value impacts all aspects of our operations, including our supply chain, environmental impact, organisational development, local community support and public safety. We recognise that our actions and decisions have a ripple effect on society, and we aim to ensure that this effect is positive and sustainable.

PURPOSE:

Our purpose is to create a sustainable, inclusive society by actively managing our operations to maximise our positive social impact. We recognise that our organisation has a responsibility to contribute to the communities in which we operate, and we aim to do so in a way that is both meaningful and measurable.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

As an organisation, we recognise that our social value impact is a collective responsibility. As such, we have established a dedicated social value team that is responsible for identifying opportunities for positive social impact and ensuring that our operations align with our commitment to creating a sustainable, inclusive society.

COMMITMENTS:

Our social value commitment outlines our commitment to creating a positive social impact in five key areas: our supply chain and the goods and services we buy, our environmental impact, our organisational development, and our support for our local communities in Greater Manchester.

1. Our supply chain and the goods and services we buy: We are committed to working with suppliers and partners who share our values and commitment to creating a sustainable, inclusive society. We prioritise ethical and sustainable sourcing and seek to support local businesses and suppliers wherever possible.
2. Our environmental impact: We recognise that our operations have an impact on the environment and aim to minimise this impact through sustainable practices and continuous improvement. We prioritise reducing waste, conserving energy, and minimising our carbon footprint.
3. Our organisational development: We believe that creating a sustainable, inclusive society starts from within. As such, we are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace that prioritises employee well-being and development. We invest in our employees’ training and development to empower them to make a positive impact in their work and communities.
4. Our support for our local communities in Greater Manchester: As an organisation, we are committed to supporting the communities in which we operate. We do this through partnerships, volunteering, and community engagement initiatives. We prioritise projects and partnerships that align with our mission of creating a sustainable, inclusive society.
5. Our Commitment to Public Safety: At the core of our values is a deep dedication to ensuring the safety and well-being of the public. We understand that a sustainable and inclusive society can only thrive when its members feel secure.

We are committed to creating a sustainable, inclusive society through our operations. We recognise that our actions and decisions have a significant impact on society and are committed to ensuring that this impact is positive and sustainable. We will continue to work with our partners, suppliers, employees, and communities to maximise our social value and create a better future for all.
