Home - Contact us - Our green credentials

As a leading web services company, we're justifiably proud of our Green credentials. We were one of the first companies to recognise the power of the internet for delivering data from a centrally held server directly to wherever it is required, rather than the outmoded and environmentally-damaging method of posting CDs.

With over 5000 customers, and with 12 updates a year to ship, this saves a massive 60,000 CDs, plus envelopes, covering letters etc. Our automated updates via the web also help to reduce our customers' carbon footprint too because they're not driving round manually updating data at different locations.

We're pleased to support WWF by providing our services free for their "Extinct" campaign at Christmas 2006 and we're also proud to provide the address verification on One Planet Living Footprint Calculator (http://footprint.wwf.org.uk).

We sponsored the Best Large Retailer award at the Online Green Awards to inspire, encourage and reward companies who are using internet shopping to progress towards conservation of the earth's resources and / or a reduction in their carbon footprint.

WWF and ITV's 'Extinct' campaign

At Postcode Anywhere we pride ourselves in doing our bit for good causes, whether this is locally by supporting children with special needs or helping major charities by providing our services free of charge.

We're also strongly committed to doing our ethical bit and environmental conservation ranks high on our CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility – see we've gone all American!) agenda.

Last Christmas we were very happy to help the WWF (Worldwide Fund for Nature by providing Postcode Anywhere to help them collect the donations they received as a result of ITV's Extinct programme.

Extinct was a week long series about the threats faced by eight endangered species and the conservation efforts that WWF and its partners were making to help them.

The programme was a wakeup call showing the impact of global warming and showcased a number of vital projects that the WWF is involved in. The revenue generated through online donations and additional fundraising activity will ultimately help the WWF's good work in conserving endangered species, protect threatened habitats and address global threats such as Climate Change for example.

Helping to calculate our carbon footprint

We're also pleased to be making sure the WWF capture accurate address data from their ongoing campaign One Plant Living Footprint Calculator.

WWF's footprint calculator is a new online tool to help people measure and decrease their impact on the planet.

Visitors to http://www.wwf.org.uk/calculator can take an eco-test that involves answering a series of lifestyle quiz questions. On completing their responses the participant is then provided with a series of steps devised to help them reduce their personal footprint.

The campaign has been well supported by lots of well know names such as Melanie C of Spice girl acclaim and Terry Waite CBE, who's an Ambassador for WWF-UK.

I would like to complement on the excellent service and documentation provided on your site.
