At Clarke Willmott we consider there to be three significant elements to acting responsibly as a business. Namely how we act towards our people, how we treat the environment and how we impact upon and interact with our local community and the wider world. All three strands are, of course, interrelated and overall our policies in these three areas form the core of our corporate responsibility policy.
As a professional practice our people are at the very core of our business. It is crucial to the overall wellbeing of our business that our people are treated fairly, with respect and are given the opportunity to nurture and develop their skills.
As well as looking after our people in the present, we recognise we have a responsibility to future generations to operate our business in a way which minimises our impact on the environment. We have worked hard to reduce our energy consumption per capita and to operate in a much "greener" and more sustainable way. We are fortunate to have a very passionate green champion amongst our partners and he has devoted considerable energy to our green agenda.
The third strand of our CR policy recognises how fortunate we are at Clarke Willmott and aim to give something back to the communities in which we work. Our people continuously contribute to resourceful and generous initiatives to raise money for charity ranging from running through the Sahara, entering marathons and "ironman", baking cakes, charity quizzes and race nights. As well as money, our people generously give their time to work with the community, with activities ranging from talks to local schools, reading buddies for primary schools, mentoring of teenagers and acting as school governors.
To read our policy in full please view the Clarke Willmott Corporate Responsibility Policy ebook, or download the full document PDF. We hope you find it informative and inspirational.
