Our Impact

At Horizon, joining our team means more than just a job - it's an opportunity to champion sustainability and drive meaningful change. We believe responsible business practices are essential to shaping a better future for our colleagues, young people, communities, and the planet. 

Through our Bright Impact initiative, we empower both colleagues and young people to take part in fundraising events, support local causes, and engage with their communities. 

By fostering strong, lasting support networks, we help young people prepare for life beyond Horizon. Every role here contributes to a greater purpose, empowering young people and building a more sustainable future for all.

Our mission is to integrate ethical and sustainable practices into every aspect of our operations, focusing on four key impact areas:

Bright Impact on Well-being and Inclusivity

We will champion a diverse and inclusive culture that promotes wellbeing and positive mental health. 

Inclusion is at the heart of everything we do, and we strive to create a positive work environment where every colleague and young person feels valued, respected, and supported. 

From promoting diversity in hiring processes and leadership, to providing equitable opportunities for growth and advancement, we're committed to creating a level playing field for all. 

Our commitment to employee health and well-being goes beyond the workplace, as we understand the importance of work-life balance and the role it plays in achieving overall satisfaction. We understand that true wellbeing encompasses physical, mental, financial and cultural health. 

That's why we take a holistic approach to wellness, offering a range of programs, resources, and support services to help our colleagues thrive in all aspects of their lives. 

Through training programs, mentorship opportunities, and career advancement initiatives, our investment in the growth and development of our colleagues allows them to reach their full potential and thrive both personally and professionally.

Bright Impact on Reading & Literacy

We will champion reading and literacy through our Space to Read campaign. 

We believe in the transformative power of reading and literacy to enrich lives, inspire imaginations, and ignite a lifelong love of learning. 

Our commitment to promoting literacy and fostering a culture of reading lies at the heart of everything we do. We are dedicated to empowering young people through access to quality reading materials and educational resources. 

Education is the foundation of a thriving society. By providing books, e-books, and digital learning platforms, we aim to break down barriers to literacy and promote equal opportunities for all. We celebrate the rich tapestry of human experience by championing diverse voices and perspectives in literature.

Bright Impact on the Planet

We will champion ethical and sustainable business practices. 

We are dedicated to safeguarding the planet for future generations. That's why we've introduced Impact Groups to reduce our carbon footprint, minimise waste, and conserve natural resources. 

We recognise the urgent need to address environmental challenges such as climate change, pollution, and habitat destruction, to safeguard the planet and the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people. 

Sustainability is a journey, not a destination. We are committed to continuous improvement and accountability, regularly monitoring our performance, setting ambitious goals, and transparently reporting on our progress during Impact Group meetings. 

By holding ourselves accountable, we ensure that our actions align with our values and contribute to a more sustainable future for all.

Bright Impact on our Communities

We will champion & engage positively with the communities in which we operate. 

We believe in the importance of engaging with our communities and advocating for environmental conservation and social justice. 

Through partnerships, fundraising initiatives, and advocacy campaigns, we strive to raise awareness, inspire action, and empower individuals to have a Bright Impact on their local and global communities. 

Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond our own walls. We believe in actively engaging with the communities where we live and work, listening to their needs, and supporting initiatives that promote social and environmental wellbeing. 

Communities play a crucial role in providing access to essential resources and opportunities that contribute to young people's development. This includes access to quality education, healthcare, recreational facilities, employment opportunities, and mentorship programs. A supportive community environment can empower young people to thrive which can have a profound impact on young people's self-esteem, resilience, and sense of belonging.
