A responsible business
With a focused management team, we are able to 'just do it', making decisions that have a positive impact on our workplace, environment, staff and the communities around us.
Community - we make a positive and lasting difference to the communities in which we live and work. Our community work is 'living, breathing' evidence of our brand values, and engages our staff as well as helping them to develop their skills. We are currently fundraising across Access Legal from Shoosmiths for Aspire, the national spinal cord injury charity. Having announced that Access Legal from Shoosmiths raises funds for Aspire, our staff have already become engaged with the charity with a game of wheelchair rugby raises charity awareness.
As part of our Community Investment activities, we actively try to support and get involved with charitable causes who support issues that are important to you. So if you've been made aware of our services by a charity that's close to you, Shoosmiths will be delighted - on every instruction - to make a donation to that charity, supporting your cause.
Workplace - we ask for, listen to, and act on the views of our staff, creatively promote work/ life balance, and actively promote equality of opportunity.
Environment - we set minimum standards of responsible behaviour to limit our impact on the environment. We're working towards becoming carbon neutral by reducing at source, as far as we can, and then off-setting.
Marketplace - we engage positively and proactively with our clients and supply chain to ensure we're first choice, both as a provider and consumer.
