Certified B Corporations™, or B Corps™, are companies verified as meeting standards for social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability.
There are now over 10,000 B Corps globally, providing over 1 million jobs across 93 countries, with 3,000 in the UK alone.
To become a B Corp, companies complete a rigorous assessment of their social, environmental, and governance performance across seven Impact Topics: Climate Action, Environmental Stewardship and Circularity, Human Rights, Fair Work, Government Affairs and Collective Action, Justice Equity Diversity and Inclusion, and Purpose and Stakeholder Governance.
The assessment is comprehensive and adapted to your industry and size. B Corp certification is designed for continuous improvement, embedding sustainable business practice into the long-term DNA of your organisation.

Transforming your business to become more sustainable can feel overwhelming. It touches on so many areas, from carbon reduction and supply chains to DEI and transparent governance.
My top tip: start small. Pick one thing and change it positively. See how the process feels and how it engages your team.
Shifting to sustainable business is an ongoing journey, not something that happens overnight or has a fixed end point. By starting with one thing, you can celebrate early progress and build momentum.
When you're ready, do it again with something else.
