SEAMLESS COMMUNICATIONS SUSTAINABLY DELIVERED

To us, community means more than just the staff at CFH. Our CFH community includes our clients and the people and businesses who are around us – at all three of our sites.

Working in partnership with our communities, we have a number of initiatives to provide help and support where we can. CFH is more than just an employer, we are environmental ambassadors in our local areas to ensure we give back to our friends and neighbours.

Our key focus centres around our core social pillars, with the overall objective to make a positive impact in our local and wider communities.

Award winning Environmental champions

At CFH we are more than just your communications partner. We are an environmental award winning partner that adds value at every stage by considering our impact on the environment. We champion the protection of our environment so that generations to come can not only benefit but thrive in the communities we work within.

CFH trees: We have planted over 115,000 trees including trees in the Queens Green Canopy. We even have a woodland in our name. Come and meet our team at one of our events and make sure you collect a tree to plant in your own garden or workplace.

Partnerships: We are a partner of Two Sides – whose initiatives promote the sustainability of print communications supply chain by publicising the positive steps taken to reduce its environmental impact.

Proud of our certifications

Would you like to find out more about our certifications?

Certified: We are proud of our ISO 14001 certification, the purchase of FSC® certified (FSC®C006025) paper, and with PEFC approval

Solar factory energy: We have 400 kW solar roof panels on our largest manufacturing site which in the summer provide all of the electricity required to run our site – imagine your communications being created by sunlight.

Research: We partnered with the University of the West England for a knowledge transfer project which has resulted in recycling and reduction initiatives for all water, waste, energy and paper use. Our white papers have been published nationally and share best practice policies on how companies can reduce their carbon footprint, while delivering savings straight to their bottom line.

Supporting community growth

We don’t just help our customers achieve the outcomes they desire, but those around us too. Together with our communities, we support local sports teams, causes and initiatives in achieving their goals.

From team sponsorship of Paulton Rovers FC to our ‘Fantastic Futures’ entrepreneurship project that forms part of annual career events for primary schools and school reading support, our enthusiasm to help those succeed is more than just a statement.

We are dedicated to supporting our local communities to grow, develop and be the best possible areas for us to live and work in.

Making a difference with charity

We don’t just support charities in the sending of their important communications, we actively promote charitable giving within CFH.

Payroll Giving: We are proud of the generosity of our employees who donate directly to charities of their choice from their payroll every month, achieving the Government Gold Payroll Giving Quality Mark.

Charity of the year: Every year, our three sites vote for their ‘Charity of the Year’. These charities are then the main focus of fundraising events like The Bath Half Marathon, sponsored skydiving and bake sales.

Annual charity dates: Our staff like to dress up and bake, and we support annual charity events, including: Christmas Jumper Day, Macmillan Coffee Morning, Children in Need and Red Nose Day.

Promoting social, local and economic change

From apprenticeships, career development, training and personal investment we continuously work with our employees to support and develop their skills and abilities.

We understand social, local and economic change can’t just take place within CFH. That’s why we are dedicated in providing specialist training and support to local schools and individuals, to educate and provide career development on a wider basis.

This support helps our local communities develop and grow and we are lucky enough to see many of these inspiring young people join the CFH family.

Sponsoring social innovation

We understand that a big part of our expertise is ensuring that the communications we send on behalf of our clients are inclusive, so that they provide understanding and resonate with each individual.

That’s why we include large print, braille, different language, accessibility features and translation services in our solutions. This ensures our clients can trust us to reach their recipients in a way that is accessible to them. We understand the importance of this and actively promote social innovation and inclusion in everything that we do.

We are proud of our pillars and our company values and hope it gives you an insight into who we are as a company, our staff and the communities we work within.

Leading health and well-being initiatives

Leading from the front, we focus on creating healthier, safer, and more resilient communities and workplaces, creating areas where individuals engage, trust and thrive in everything they do.

From Cycle to Work schemes, yoga and gym memberships, and employee assistance programmes, we positively promote staff well-being and when needed we have an extensive team of trained Mental Health First Aiders at every site.
