A word from our MD

"The single biggest thing we can collectively do is to use our will and endeavour as people who care.

"We care about Sage, we care about our colleagues, we care about our customers, and we care about being responsible.

"If we were to put every ounce of spare effort we have into thinking about CSR we can make a massive difference to the communities in which we live and work and our responsibilities to our customers and suppliers.

"Years ago people were thinking of CSR as something ‘different’, I don't think that's the case now, CSR and business are completely interlinked."
- Paul Stobart, Managing Director, Sage (UK) Limited

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)

We're passionate at Sage about doing the right things, at the right time and in the right way, so acting responsibly isn't something we pay lip service to, it guides all that we do and everyone takes ownership to make it happen.

We're committed to our people and their development; to our customers and the suppliers who work with us to help serve them better, and to the communities and the environment that surrounds us.

Whilst we have dedicated resource to direct our CSR initiatives, they're often driven by our people because it matters to them that we care.

So whether they're helping us to support charitable events, volunteering in the community, coming up with new ways to be 'greener' or living and breathing our guiding principles of simplicity, agility, innovation, trust and integrity, it's our people who put our responsibilities into action.

The ways we act now, and the actions we take to improve our approach to CSR in the future, are constantly evolving to ultimately make us a truly responsible business.

How we live and breathe our business

To help people understand what it is we do and to celebrate some of the highlights of the past year, we've brought them together in our Corporate Social Responsibility Report for 2008.

It's been another packed year for us, and we hope you enjoy the report and the insight it provides into Sage (UK) Limited.
