Spectra is a good, ethical company to do business with. We pride ourselves that our staff carry out their duties in a workplace which is healthy, safe, inclusive and supportive while bearing their environmental and social responsibilities in mind. Spectra aims to consistently demonstrate a progressive and proactive approach in the implementation of our Environmental and Corporate Social Responsibility Policy, with enthusiasm and ambition in achieving our goals.
Contributing positively to our world is important to Spectra and all staff are actively encouraged to support charitable projects. Spectra is proud to be associated with the Brain Tumour Research Campaign (BTRC). Since BTRC was founded by Spectra’s Chairman, Wendy Moffatt, we have provided administrative support, infrastructure and logistical support, as well as sponsorship of various events to help BTRC raise awareness and funds of over £3,500,000 to support this historically underfunded research area.
When Wendy’s husband John died in 2001 from a brain tumour, she determined to try and rectify the unfair imbalance of funding for brain tumour research. Together with John’s neurosurgeon, she created a Centre of Excellence at Imperial College London to fund sustainable translational research, which has already seen some positive improvements in treatments. The entire Spectra team engages in this very personal campaign started in her husband’s memory.
The Environmental protection and minimized impact of our business activities upon the communities within which we work is an important part of Spectra’s philosophy. We recognise that adopting best practices for the environment’s protection is fundamental to the future.
To guide Spectra forward, Spectra has updated its Environmental and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Policy and Goals Policy, which is available to view by clicking the link below:
