We take our social responsibility very seriously, championing inclusion and diversity for example. We always work hard to make sure that all the projects and activities we evaluate include as many people as possible.

We also work on a lot of environmental projects and are a sustainable team. We minimise commuting by working from home, expect for once a week office days. Our director’s commute is walking to walk! We avoid single use plastic, and hardly use any consumables as a business.

We are a philanthropic team, our director, Kirsty, volunteers for her local secondary school as the school’s strategic careers lead, and our people specialist, Bronwen is also a trained hedgehog rescuer!

We are an ethical organisation, where we make decisions as a team. We even have an ethical query resolution process which is worked through step by step.

And, last but absolutely not least, we are passionate about wellbeing. We delivered the groundbreaking wellbeing project, ‘72 Seasons’ in 2020. This involved getting more than 300 people to rewrite the seasons with us to create an agreed set of nature seasons, to help people connect more with nature as it sits on their doorstep. Since then we continue to share the seasons online and the community of seasonal seekers has now grown to almost 2,000 people. You can see more about the 72 Seasons project here. 

This is all in addition to our operational activity which looks at social responsibility day in and day out! We are delighted to be finalists along with two other amazing organisations; Domiciliary Home Care Services and VS Group.
