Cyber Essentials

Cyber Essentials is an effective, Government backed scheme that will help you to protect your organisation, whatever its size, against a whole range of the most common cyber-attacks. Cyber-attacks come in many shapes and sizes, but the vast majority are very basic in nature, carried out by relatively unskilled individuals. They’re the digital equivalent of a thief trying your front door to see if it’s unlocked. Our advice is designed to prevent these attacks.

SME Climate Hub

The SME Climate Hub is a non-profit global initiative that empowers small to medium sized companies to take climate action and build resilient businesses for the future. The Hub is an initiative of the We Mean Business Coalition, the Exponential Roadmap Initiative and the United Nations Race to Zero campaign in collaboration with Normative and the Net Zero team at Oxford University.

The HMRC Fulfilment House Due Diligence Scheme (FHDDS) is a regulatory framework introduced by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) in the United Kingdom. The scheme is designed to tackle Value Added Tax (VAT) fraud and non-compliance in the e-commerce sector, particularly involving goods imported from outside the European Union (EU) and sold to UK consumers via online marketplaces.

Oh Yes Net Zero Hull

Oh Yes! Net Zero is a unique opportunity for everyone in the Hull city region to come together once more and make a positive impact on the world around us. This time, we will do it by working together to drive down our carbon footprint and make sure we lead the way in the UK’s fight against the effects of climate change on our city and our region. We want to do it our way and lead the way in becoming net zero for the UK. There aren’t many cities that could do this, but we really can.
