Our ESG battle plan
Care more, nothing less.
It’s about impact, not hours or pounds donated.
Care. Courage. Conviction. These are the values placed at the heart of everything we do. We invest in wellbeing, inclusion and development, are B Corp certified, have built an award-winning workplace culture (named as CSR Leaders in the East Midlands Business Chambers Awards 2026) and actively measure and transparently share the results of our annual ESG efforts.
Our key focuses for impact:
- Leveraging our regional connections to aid effective change and support economic prosperity in the cities we love
- Listening to our colleagues to make the positive differences that we all want to see as a collective for improved inclusion, diversity, wellbeing and professional progression
- Respecting and valuing the place of young people in the communities where we work with a focus on those not in employment or education – delivered through the boards we advise on and the opportunities for training and employment we create
Proudly B Corp Certified.
Being a Certified B Corporation, means we’re one of a select few UK communications agencies that meet the highest standards of social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability.
For us, it recognises our dedication to aways push for better when working with or for Cartwright. For clients, it demonstrates that as your ally, we contribute to your own ESG goals by assuredly sharing the same quality standards and commitment to social purpose.
Our impact report 2025/2026
As part of celebrating our ESG commitments and sharing our vision for the year ahead, we’re proud to make our impact report for 2025/2026 available to a wider audience.
Our ambitions.
For the 2026/27 year, we are committed to:
Act now with purpose.
We take responsibility for what’s ahead - we don’t wait for change, and we act with conviction to reduce our impact and protect our environment by making sustainable changes in using renewable energy at our office locations.
Building brighter minds.
We firmly support the development of future talent - creating access, opportunity and confidence through education, mentoring and real-world experience. Utilising our key partnerships, we will target support for young people that are at risk of being disengaged from the workforce and education system, known as NEETs - not in employment, education or training.
Caring from the inside out.
Always right by you: Our ethos and mentality are central to our mission to ensure we put our people first to champion diversity and inclusion. An actionable ED&I plan sits alongside a transparent structure for personal growth and reward.
Being present in our community.
We believe we are stronger together, working alongside local causes, giving time, skills and a voice to people and organisations that help build stronger communities. Two of our team have been recognised for their commitments in this area with CIPR Volunteer Recognition Awards 2026.
