Helping Charities, NFP’s and Community Action Groups Thrive with Technology

I’m Craig Hawes, founder of Bees Knees IT. I’d like to share the purpose behind our work – why we do what we do, and the values and ethos that drive our company every day.

I served proudly in the Royal Air Force for 12 years, where I gained extensive experience in leadership, operations, and working under pressure.

During my time, I was involved in humanitarian and aid relief missions, delivering support to communities affected by conflict.

This commitment to service and helping others continues to shape Bees Knees IT’s approach today—combining discipline, reliability, and a genuine passion for making a positive impact (with some military humour thrown in!).

Over time, we naturally found ourselves drawn to supporting charities and not-for-profit organizations.

It felt like the perfect fit for our values and the kind of impact we want to make.

We know that charities and not-for-profits face unique challenges—tight budgets, big goals, and the need for reliable tech that just works.

That’s why we’re passionate about supporting organizations that make a real difference.

Our Managed IT Services are designed to take the stress out of technology. 

We specialise in delivering tailored solutions designed to help you achieve your goals without compromise.

From secure cloud solutions, proactive IT support to Cyber Essentials Certification, we provide cost-effective, reliable technology that enables your team to focus on what matters most—making a difference.

Why not give us a buzz on 01274 955509 and lets see how we can help you.

Not a Charity or NFP? Don’t worry, we look after over 100 businesses across all industries and sectors
