Commenting on CIL’s B Corp status, Jon Whiteman, Managing Partner at CIL, commented:

“CIL is a rapidly growing company, and with this comes a responsibility to balance profit with purpose. Guided by our ESG principles, we ensure our operations are environmentally responsible and community focused. Our dedication to making a difference is reflected in our charitable partnerships, fundraising efforts and pro bono work as well as the fact we offset 110% of our emissions as part of a comprehensive climate action strategy focused on measuring, reducing, and mitigating our environmental impact. We are extremely proud that our efforts have been recognised with B Corp status.”

Megan Savage Shaw, Director and ESG Lead at CIL, added: “Achieving B Corp certification is a significant milestone for CIL and reflects our ongoing commitment to integrating environmental and social responsibility into all aspects of our business.
