THINGS TO CELEBRATE Here are some of the steps we’ve taken to ensure people and planet remain at the heart of everything we do. OUR MISSION STATEMENT No one can solve the planet’s problems alone. For that reason, we’re not just passionate about improving our own impact, but also about bringing other organisations along on the journey to Net Zero. It’s a driving force we’ve laid down in our company mission statement: “We give organisations the space, knowledge, contacts and tools to accelerate their sustainability journey and progress towards Net Zero. We do this by showcasing innovative solutions, facilitating future-thinking discussions and collaborating with one another.” MISSION: LOCKED The need to take account of the impact of our decisions on people and planet has been added to our articles of association—the legally binding contract that contains all the rules we agree to follow as a business. Developed in line with the Blueprint for Better Business, our legal rulebook includes commitments to be “a guardian for future generations”, honour “our duty to protect the natural world” and consider “each person affected by [our] decisions as if they were a member of [our] own community.” 17
