We believe in doing our bit

Whilst we’re not a big carbon producer, we believe in doing our bit to be green. We’ve come up with a set of core actions to reduce our carbon footprint. Our Sale St office is now solar powered and we have taken measures to eliminate as much waste as possible from our day to day operations.

Lots of Squirrels want to make a difference and our team is dedicated to maintaining our stance on this.

We also have a policy of refurbishing and recycling our used Macbooks and phones for staff to provide for their families.

We get up to a bunch of squirrel business to make working together fun. We volunteer, play some touch (and win!), have a couple costume parties just to name a few.
