We believe that companies have a responsibility to act as a force for good, and our B Corp certification is a significant milestone on our growth journey as we deliver on our mission to deliver genuine step-change outcomes - new dawns - for our customers in a socially and environmentally responsible way.

“Being based at the Health and Wellbeing Innovation Centre had a very positive impact on our application, as we were able to prove the sustainability of our office space, which would be difficult to do in a more traditional building.”
