Giving Back

Fundamentally, we love making a difference.

That’s what drives us to do the work we do. However, we believe it shouldn’t stop there. We might be a small team, but we have very big hearts. And giving back is really important to us. That’s why:

"We encourage and support our team to give their time to community/voluntary service"

Giving time and energy to volunteer can be hard with the super-busy lives we lead. However, it’s a really valuable way to help individuals and communities in need. That’s why we are committed to giving at least 5% or more of our time to volunteering.  In 2022-2023, we exceeded our target – volunteering 180 hours, that’s just over 5.5% across our team (this includes our permanent freelance staff too!).

We partner with charities and offer discounts or in-kind support to underserved groups
Charities and not-for-profit organisations have the same reasons to meet as our corporate partners. However, we’d like as much money as possible going towards supporting their great causes.

That’s why we always substantially discount our management fees for all charities and not-for-profit organisations.

We are committed to donating 10% of our profits to deserving causes.   Depending on the charity or project’s needs, these are given as cash donations; equipment; volunteer hours or discounts. 

In 2022-2023, we were proud to support Lifeways (a natural health charity), Molly Olly’s Wishes (supporting children with life threatening illnesses and their families), Stratford-upon-Avon Food Bank, Rubbish Friends (a local volunteer litter picking charity), B Lab UK and Bardsley Youth Project (supporting young people (age 16-25) in Coventry who are homeless).

As well as this, we also take every opportunity to champion the causes we care about. Nothing is closer to our hearts than sustainability. We love to share the knowledge we have gained and learn more. We’re always looking for opportunities to take part in discussions, debates and speak on sustainability. And we’re open and accessible to individuals and businesses that need help to improve their social and environmental practices.
