Introduction

Every business leaves a digital footprint, whether through emails, websites, cloud storage, or AI systems.

While those actions may seem invisible, together they have a real environmental cost.

The Digital Changemakers Charter is our shared promise to recognise that impact and take responsibility for it.

By signing, you’re joining a community of businesses and individuals across the UK who are ready to use technology more consciously, reduce waste, and lead with purpose.

This isn’t a certification or a checklist — it’s a declaration of intent.

A pledge to make small, meaningful changes that collectively create a big difference.

Why Sign The Charter

Becoming a Digital Changemaker means more than just joining a network — it means standing for something.

When you sign the Charter, you:

  • Make a public commitment to better digital practices.

  • Show your clients, colleagues, and community that sustainability matters to your business.

  • Gain access to resources, events, and challenges that help you turn awareness into action.

  • Become part of a collective movement driving positive change in how we use the digital world.

Our Shared Commitment

Awareness

Recognising that every digital action carries weight — from the websites we visit to the files we store. Awareness is about seeing the invisible footprint of our online world and understanding how technology choices shape the planet’s future.

Action

Turning awareness into progress through practical, achievable steps. From improving efficiency and reducing waste to encouraging ethical use of AI, Action means doing what we can, where we can, to make measurable change.

Accountability

Taking ownership of our impact and being open about the journey. Accountability is about celebrating progress, sharing lessons, and supporting one another to keep moving forward — no judgement, just growth.

Advocacy

Using our collective voice to inspire others. Advocacy means standing for better digital practices, raising awareness within our industries, and helping sustainability become part of every business conversation.

What It Means to Be a Digital Changemaker

By signing the Charter, you’re pledging to:

  • Maintain greener, faster, and more efficient digital operations wherever possible.

  • Consider energy and accessibility in every digital choice.

  • Encourage your team to adopt responsible habits around data and technology.

  • Explore ethical approaches to AI and automation.

  • Share your progress and help others begin their journey.

It’s not about perfection. It’s about progress, community, and shared purpose.

Sign the Digital Changemakers Charter

An invitation to lead by example in a shared digital future.

This is your invitation to take a small but powerful step — to stand for something bigger than your business, and to join a community of people choosing to make digital better.

The Digital Changemakers Charter isn’t about ticking boxes or meeting standards.

It’s about showing up — as a business, as a team, as individuals — and saying:

“We care about the impact we have, and we’re ready to do something about it.”

Signing the Charter means aligning your organisation with a simple truth:

that how we use technology matters — to the planet, to people, and to the future of business itself.

When you add your name, you’re not just committing to change — you’re helping shape a movement built on collaboration, creativity, and responsibility.

What It Means to Sign

To sign the Charter is to say yes to progress. Yes to learning. Yes to doing better with what we already have.

It’s an act of intention, not perfection — and an invitation to join others who are finding new ways to make digital more human, ethical, and sustainable.

You’re not alone in this. You’re joining hundreds of others — from local enterprises to national organisations — who believe that meaningful change begins with awareness, action, accountability, and advocacy.

A Moment That Matters

When your name appears beneath the Charter, it becomes part of a growing collective statement — one that tells the world that business can be both digital and sustainable.

Take a breath, read the Charter, and if it resonates with what you stand for, add your name.

That’s how every movement begins — with intention, and with you.

FAQ's

The Charter is a collective pledge that brings together businesses and individuals committed to making the digital world cleaner, fairer, and more sustainable. By signing, you’re joining a growing movement that believes every digital choice — from hosting to emails to AI use — carries an environmental and ethical impact worth improving.

Anyone. The Charter is open to all businesses, organisations, and individuals who want to make a difference. You don’t need to work in tech or sustainability — you just need the intention to use digital more responsibly.

No — becoming a Member of Digital Changemakers is completely free. Signing the Charter simply shows your public commitment to better digital practices. If you want to get more involved later, you can upgrade to Partner or Leader membership tiers.

You’ll receive a Digital Changemakers badge for your website or social media and access to our community space where members share ideas, challenges, and success stories. You’ll also get updates about events, workshops, and new initiatives.

No — it’s a movement, not a compliance scheme.

Signing the Charter doesn’t grant a certification; it marks your public commitment to digital responsibility and connects you with others doing the same.

Signing shows leadership, values, and forward thinking. It strengthens your sustainability credentials, boosts your brand reputation, and connects you with others driving positive change across the UK. More importantly, it helps your team think differently about how they use technology every day.

You’re pledging to take part in the Four A’s of Digital Change:

Awareness, Action, Accountability, and Advocacy.

This means staying mindful of your digital impact, taking small steps to reduce waste, being transparent about your journey, and inspiring others to follow. It’s not about perfection — it’s about progress.

Not at all. We welcome freelancers, educators, creators, students, and anyone curious about building a more sustainable digital world. Everyone has a digital footprint, and everyone has the power to change it.

That’s okay — you can still take part. Even if you don’t directly manage your website or hosting, you can ask better questions, encourage greener suppliers, and promote sustainable practices in everyday digital behaviour. Every voice matters.

Digital Changemakers focuses specifically on the digital layer of sustainability — the websites, emails, AI tools, cloud storage, and data that most businesses overlook. It’s a community built on action and accountability, not corporate box-ticking.

After signing yourself, you’ll get a shareable link and badge so you can invite others to join. Many businesses make it a team activity — reading the Charter together and discussing what each of the Four A’s means to them.

You’ll be part of an ongoing journey — with monthly Changemaker Challenges, community discussions, and networking events. You can also contribute articles, share case studies, or co-host sessions that inspire others.

Your signature is the start, not the end.

Becoming a Digital Changemaker is completely free – all you need to do is Sign the Charter and pledge to make better digital choices.

Your commitment includes simple, ongoing actions such as maintaining a greener website, reducing unnecessary data waste, and adopting ethical, responsible uses of AI and technology.

It’s not about perfection; it’s about progress – small, collective steps that make a measurable difference to our shared digital future.
