Well, that went quickly!
It’s already been one year since we became a Certified B Corp™ and joined a global community of businesses balancing purpose and profit. Becoming a B Corp™ wasn't
easy and it wasn’t just a milestone for Atkin Jones and Sanderson Phillips, it was a steadfast commitment to doing business differently long-term. Business that supports our people, our planet and our prosperity as a purpose-led organisation.
We’re not going to lie, keeping the momentum going over the past 12 months has been challenging. We’ve significantly expanded our team (hurray!), taken on board more amazing travel clients (yippee!) and engaged with more purpose-led partners and networks (shout out to Safer Tourism Foundation, Women in Travel CIC and wmnsWORK).
But whilst we’re pleased about what we’ve achieved so far, we know that most things worth doing don’t come easily, and this growth has meant that some of our goals are still a work in progress.
So! With that in mind, we’re busy setting our sights on how we can really make the next few months and weeks count including finalising our Impact Report for the past 12 months. Looking ahead we’re going to continue to ensure that the (new) B Corp standards remain fully embedded in our business, including:
Speaking to all of our stakeholders to get first-hand feedback about what we’re doing well, what we could do better and where we can push ourselves even further to support our triple bottom line goals
Investing in our Just, Good Travel community to encourage positive change amongst our clients, partners and friends in travel
Continuing to support causes and communities that align with our values
Continuing to build a workplace that prioritises inclusion, transparency, and impact
We’re also proud to be part of the ever-inspiring Travel by B Corp collective of travel businesses working collaboratively to drive forward a shared belief that travel can (and will!) be a force for good.
This anniversary is a reminder that meaningful change does take effort. But we're proud to be part of a movement proving that good business really can support all.
To our team, partners, and community: thank you for helping us live our values every day. Here's to year two and beyond!
