Corporate Social Responsibility at EPX IT

At EPX, we believe technology should do more than power business - it should power positive change. Our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) approach is built around this belief, blending innovation, sustainability, and community engagement to make a meaningful difference.

Giving back through technology

We repurpose and donate retired EPX equipment to trusted local charities, helping bridge the digital divide. Each device is securely erased, tested, and rehomed - often becoming a critical tool for education, job seeking, or everyday access to the digital world.

To date, hundreds of computers have been donated.

Free IT Stafford is a UK volunteer tech team repairing unwanted computers and giving them back to the community - for free!

We regularly donate redundant laptops to this fantastic organisation.

Supporting local organisations and initiatives

From proudly sponsoring the Stone Food and Drink Festival to backing initiatives like the Staffordshire Business Awards, EPX actively invests in the cultural and economic vitality of our region. We don’t just show up - we shine a spotlight.

Through social media, blogs, and press partnerships, we share stories of our involvement and the people driving these events forward. Our team members are also encouraged to attend and volunteer, with their contributions celebrated online and internally.

In 2026, we partnered with Stafford Rugby Club, a well-established community club that plays an important role in local sport and social life. As part of our partnership, we provide IT support to help ensure the club’s systems and facilities run smoothly behind the scenes, supporting both its day-to-day operations and future development. We’re pleased to contribute to an organisation that brings people together across the local area and helps maintain strong community connections.

Championing greener IT

Sustainability is at the heart of how we operate. Led by our CEO Dan Ellis, EPX advocates for energy-efficient technology - both within our business and in the solutions we offer to clients.

Dan regularly speaks at industry events about reducing IT’s carbon footprint - we aim to be a beacon for sustainable tech.

Wellbeing, inclusion and ethical growth

As a company, we are proud of our internal values surrounding mental health, workplace wellbeing and ethical leadership.

These themes are woven into our company and are part of our values - values that we work towards as a team and bring into the day-to-day working of EPX.

At EPX, CSR is not an add-on - it’s a core part of who we are.

Whether we’re enabling a charity to operate more efficiently, mentoring an up-and-coming tech firm, or reducing our environmental impact, we’re working toward a future where technology works for everyone.

We are aiming to make a difference, one byte at a time.
