Good Business Charter
Navig8 places great importance in adhering to what we consider to be the basic ethical principles for good business practices. On receiving accreditation from the Good Business Charter, a non-partisan initiative founded to promote responsible business practices, we demonstrate that we align with and meet their ten criteria:
Mind
Navig8 is a signatory to Mind’s Mental Health at Work Commitment and adheres to the six standards:
Standard 1: Prioritise mental health in the workplace by developing and delivering a systematic programme of activity.
Standard 2: Proactively ensure work design and organisational culture drive positive mental health outcomes.
Standard 3: Promote an open culture around mental health.
Standard 4: Increase organisational confidence and capability.
Standard 5: Provide mental health tools and support.
Standard 6: Increase transparency and accountability through internal and external reporting.
The Fitzrovia Partnership
Navig8 is a member of The Fitzrovia Partnership. The BID works to deliver cleaner, greener and sustainable work practices. Navig8 is a key consultant to the BID. We are a CSR partner to The Fitzrovia Partnership. This manifests itself in us supplying free or discounted work, donations and support to their programmes. Navig8 has committed to their environmental waste reduction, sustainability and community support.
Community, volunteering and charity
As part of our commitment to social impact, we provide pro-bono and reduced-rate design services to organisations that support our local community. This includes work with Centre 404, Fitzrovia Community Centre, Hackney Mind, and the UCLH Children’s Cancer Ward, alongside several other charitable groups. We approach these projects with the same standards and creative quality we apply to all client work, ensuring the value of the service remains clear and respected. Drew is a mentor for Bloo Space and a participant in the cross-party group, consulting on the government’s policy for design and design education – Policy Connect. Our team also contributes time through volunteering and trustee roles, offering strategic and practical support beyond delivery. These partnerships reflect our belief that design can be a meaningful tool for positive social change.
Environment and sustainability
We champion sustainable working, reducing our carbon footprint and delivering environmentally sound solutions to our clients. See our Navig8 Environmental Policy. Navig8 offers a Carbon Balancing option for printed material through The World Land Trust. To learn more about our environmental commitments, please visit our Environment page.
Ethics and equal opportunity
Navig8 has a very strong Equality and Diversity Policy. See Navig8 Equality and Diversity for details.
We commit to the standards set out in the Ethical Trading Initiative Base Code.
