Our Values

Vu avoids offshore development in line with our Ethical and Environmental Policies, preventing poor labour conditions and unnecessary air miles.

We strive for a diverse, inclusive workforce where all employees feel valued and empowered, we work to support underrepresented groups as detailed in our Equality & Diversity Policy.

We hold the following values closely when working with our clients.

  1. 01

    Advice that suits you – not us

    Our team of creative problem solvers and network of partners deliver high-quality work. We focus on meeting your goals, not pushing our products. We try to find evidence to support your ideas and ensure they have a good chance of success, we feel it is our duty to set clear expectations and speak the unvarnished truth where needed.

  2. 02

    Working towards a green web

    We are working with organisations who want to create a greener web. All of our websites are hosted on green web foundation approved 100% renewable energy, assessed to ISO 14001 standards. We design with a preference for performance, ease of use and quality content.

  3. 03

    Hands on help

    Our clients often come to us looking for a product, in our experience they need a service. We enjoy visiting our clients at their places of work, understanding their individual needs and challenges and workshopping new ideas with them is both highly rewarding for us and progressive for them – it’s why our clients stay with us for the long run.

  4. 04

    Education when it’s sought

    Passionately integrating ourselves in your organisation to enable greater knowledge and smarter working towards the goals. We take the time to meet people and share knowledge through our own networking events, group training sessions, hands-on workshops throughout the project process at Vu and of course endlessly updating our web design blog.

  5. 05

    Belief in potential

    We partner with passionate business owners to build organisations of impact, we help them push boundaries to discover and implement new ideas. Our goal is to create a respected community focused on making business better for people & the planet.

  6. 06

    Being Human

    We’ll have successes and failures. We’ll share in both and learn from both. We all have a responsibility to help each other and our clients and customers to enjoy the experience of doing business together.

Our Team

The Vu Team is a tight-knit group of skilled local talent, collaborating with top agencies and trusted freelancers to provide a full digital service.

We never offshore work, you’ll always be able to connect directly with the experts delivering your project.

Awards (Or Not)

We all appreciate recognition for great work, but the digital awards industry often seems driven by paid accolades. Ethically, we’ve always avoided awards entirely.

However, to counter this cynicism, we sought out communities and awards that align with our values. We’re proud to have been finalists in the Exeter Sustainability Awards & The Good Small Business Awards.

Our Community

From the Positive Nature Network events through to other networks we are a part of, we would love to get to you know in (the flesh, in actual) real life.

You can sign up for our newsletter, follow us on social media, and explore advice and insights from our 15-year blog.

Agency Partnerships

We collaborate with other digital agencies to create a powerful network of shared expertise.

By exchanging knowledge and resources, we strengthen our capabilities, bringing in specialist skills for niche projects and ensuring robust support for public sector contracts.

Let's make a start.
