Sustainability

We try to tread lightly

Exploring the outdoors means looking after it too. Our work runs on renewable power, and we try to give back a bit more than we use.

Renewable Energy

Our offices and web servers run entirely on renewable energy, verified by The Green Web Foundation.

Carbon Negative

We offset more CO₂ than we produce each year, making our day-to-day operations carbon negative.

Tree Planting

We plant native trees in the UK and support global reforestation efforts through Ecologi.

Global Hunger Relief

We've donated over 26,272 meals through ShareTheMeal.org.

1,346+ tonnes

We help local and global organisations where we can, with development time, sponsorship and donations, for causes close to home and further afield.

Who's behind it

A small studio

Lisia Digital is founded and run by Simon Harvey, a Guernsey-based software developer, who works closely with his brother Adam Harvey across many of its projects. Their backgrounds span education, ecology and outdoor learning, and much of life happens outdoors: the office is often a desk in Guernsey, but just as easily the side of a mountain on one of Simon's bikepacking trips, or the deck of Adam's boat out at sea. They build practical tools that help people learn, explore and connect, and look after them end to end, from database design through to hosting and support.

We build software that solves real problems rather than abstract technical projects. Our approach is practical, ethical and environmentally conscious, focused on digital tools that are clear, useful and easy to use.
