We're B Corp Certified!
We're proudly B Corp Certified
In 2022 we were over the moon to be given our B Corp certification, qualifying with a score of 97.3.
B Corp is a global certification that assesses a business based on their environmental and social performance. We began the process as we wanted to make a commitment to balancing profit with people and the planet.
As a company we already had a lot of great values but gaining our B Corp certification pushed us to reach the highest standards of environmental and social impact. To find out more visit the website.
The journey to becoming a B corp was the perfect opportunity to focus the whole company on how to use business as a force for good. To find out more about our impact, check out our 2023 Impact Report.
