Sustainable and Social Sourcing Policy

Gary Evans

Senior freelance graphic designer supporting agencies and organisations across the UK.

As a freelance graphic designer, I operate a proportionate and responsible approach to sustainable and social sourcing.

My services are delivered primarily digitally, significantly reducing environmental impact through minimal travel, paper usage and physical materials. Where print production is required, I encourage the use of FSC-certified papers, recycled stocks and environmentally responsible printers.

Suppliers are selected based on quality, ethical standards and environmental credentials. I prioritise UK-based suppliers where possible to reduce transport-related emissions and support the domestic economy.

Cloud-based systems are used to minimise physical storage and waste, and hardware is maintained for longevity to reduce electronic waste.

I also collaborate with trusted freelance designers and creative professionals on a fair-pay basis, supporting independent practitioners and small businesses within the creative sector.

This approach ensures that sustainability, ethical practice and social responsibility are embedded within the delivery of my services.
