What are some of the things that make us a B Corp?
Volunteering
In 2023 we upped our volunteering to the next level. Since then we've had team volunteering days with Food For All and Stepney City Farm to name just a few.
Living wage
We've been living wage accredited since 2017. We also offer paid professional development and upskilling opportunities to all our staff.
Health and wellness
We acknowledge that everyone has mental health, just like everyone has physical health, so we've baked both into our health and wellness policies. From group personal training sessions to being part of the cycle to work scheme, as well as a host of in-house sports teams and access to the mental health platform Spill to name just a few.
Environment
With the help of our clients, we fund the planting of trees across the world through Ecologi. Take a look how we're doing.
Inclusivity
From anonymous screening when we hire, through to gender neutral parental policies we're committed to encouraging equality, diversity and inclusion in our employment practices as well as across the insurance industry as a whole.
What's next?
Achieving B Corp status is not the end of the journey for us.
We will continue to do all the things that got us this far — putting our customers at the centre of the work we do, volunteering with our local community, working towards a cleaner environment, and continue being an inclusive place to work.
Each year we'll publish an Impact Report which documents where we want to be, the improvements we’re making and the work we’re doing to support others.
We’re also committing to be net zero by 2030 — no mean feat, so watch this space!
