Our Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) impact report

Our 2021/22 ESG impact report, covering activity from June 2021 to December 2022, captures the work we have done to contribute towards making a positive impact for our clients, colleagues and wider communities and also outlines our future commitments.

It reports on how we are striving to build a brighter future through our ESG programme, our Kreston Reeves Foundation, as well as the 12-month strategic plan being created by our Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) leads. Since 31 December 2022 we are also very proud to have achieved B Corp certification in recognition of our ESG efforts.

We recognise the important role we face as a business to act responsibly and hold ourselves accountable for creating long-lasting positive change. This speaks to our purpose beyond profit, which is important to all our stakeholders. It’s why we have committed to being transparent and publishing our impact report each year. We’re aligning our impact with four of the United Nation SDGs – ‘Good health and wellbeing’, ‘Quality education’, ‘Reduced inequalities’ and ‘Climate action’ – and have dedicated a section to each of these in the report.

Jennifer Williamson, Culture and Values Partner, comments; “Being a responsible business isn’t just about ticking boxes for us, it’s a core part of why we exist. Our purpose is to guide our clients, colleagues and communities to a brighter future and this report demonstrates how our firm and people are doing this. During the last couple of years, we’ve been on a significant journey of adapting, progressing and moving forward together and although this report focuses on activity from 2021/22, since then we’re also delighted to have achieved B Corp certification.”

Andrew Griggs, Senior Partner, comments; “Our vision as a firm is to make a difference and lead the way as a sustainable and socially focused adviser. We know that we can make a difference internally and locally and are now striving to make a difference globally as well through leading the Kreston Global ESG taskforce. We want to widen the scope of our impact and inspire more businesses to progress their own ESG journeys.”
