ESG - social value is no longer a mere nice-to-have

Highlighting the positive impact of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) on their workforce, local community, and broader society is increasingly important  - and at Anthony Collins, we became the fourth in the UK and the first in the Midlands to achieve B Corp status in 2022! 

Embracing social responsibility can bring tangible benefits for your business, employees, and local community - championing social value contributes to a sustainable and thriving business ecosystem. 🌍

While some dismiss ESG as a meaningless tick-box exercise, others say it highlights that businesses can be a force for good. “How are we as a country going to achieve net-carbon zero by 2050 and address socially and economically disadvantaged people in society? We can’t just look to government to solve it all,” says Peter Hubbard, managing partner at Birmingham-based Anthony Collins Solicitors, where ESG plays a key role in the business.
