Social value

At Capgemini UK, we believe business can be a powerful force for good. We’re committed to making a positive impact in all aspects of our work, from supporting local communities to safeguarding the environment. This translates into developing sustainable solutions, empowering individuals, and fostering a diverse and inclusive environment.

The UK government is leading the charge towards a more responsible business landscape, and Capgemini is at the forefront. With a wealth of experience and an authentic, outcome-based approach, we partner with clients to achieve their goals while creating tangible social benefits.  We strive to be leaders in driving positive social change, leaving a lasting national impact through collaboration and innovation. 

Our mission is to achieve shared value, balancing financial success with a strong sense of purpose. We actively promote collaboration across industries and integrate social responsibility into every facet of our operations.  This ensures we not only exceed client expectations but also drive societal progress alongside business growth.  We aim to do well by doing good.  

Approach 

Driven by a passion for making a real difference, we leverage our digital expertise to empower a diverse range of individuals and communities across the UK. This goes beyond supporting those facing challenges, we also play a crucial role in building the future workforce at scale. By fostering opportunities for young people and by bolstering local businesses to strengthen the economy, we strive to create lasting social value and achieve significant progress in levelling up the UK through our large-scale contracts. 

Our core social value programme ensures widespread impact. 

Nationally, we collaborate with organisations to offer a range of adaptable digital skills programmes, targeting individuals of all ages facing challenges like refugees, veterans, and young people, to bridge the digital divide and unlock their full potential.  

Locally, in communities with greater challenges, we work directly with local organisations and residents to understand their unique needs. Through collaboration, we develop and implement sustainable, long-term programmes that address local social mobility challenges and equip individuals with the skills, access and confidence they need to thrive in an increasingly digital world.  

Beyond our core programme, we’ve established a framework for social value. This framework, structured around the following six key areas, empowers us to address a wider spectrum of social issues and achieve significant impact at scale. 

  • We show you how: We help you see how digital skills can unlock your goals, from finding a job to staying connected. 
  • We help you learn: No matter your experience, we offer training in digital skills and finding a job. 
  • We connect you to careers: We help people with potential find good jobs, even if they haven’t had many chances before. 
  • We build a welcoming community: We create a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone feels supported to succeed. 
  • We work with others: We come together with organisations throughout our supply chain, from across our partner ecosystem and beyond to create even more opportunities.   
  • We protect the planet: We care about the environment and encourage sustainable practices. 

Our goal is to empower individuals with digital skills and confidence for meaningful employment, and to create lasting social value in targeted communities, fostering positive change and social mobility. We believe in the power of collaboration and work closely with our partners and communities to ensure our programmes are effective and sustainable. Together, we can build a brighter future for individuals and communities across the UK.
