No company is perfect. But we work hard to improve. That’s what being a Certified B Corporation™ represents to us: the spirit of continuous improvement.

As part of our B Corp month celebrations, we initiated some fun activities for our team to get involved.

✏️ We’ve opened up our Pledge Wall.

A simple idea: commit to one action that raises the bar — for our people, our community, our clients, or our planet.

🥊 For a bit of energy (and accountability), we launched our first ever Impact Games.

Where the team can earn points by taking small actions that support our B Corp commitments.

💚 We’ve also brought two of our charity partners into the conversation.

We were joined by Amy Harris from The Hygiene Bank who shared powerful insights into hygiene poverty in the UK and the impact it has on millions of people.

Finally, Laura Farrell-Pronesti from Groundwork NE & Cumbria talked to our team about their work across the region, including the wild oyster restoration project in Sunderland.

Thoughtful digital products don’t just scale technology. They support the people who rely on them every day.

Working with Teachmate, we rebuilt their platform to improve performance, reliability and flexibility, giving teachers a smoother experience and giving the Teachmate team the foundations to keep evolving their AI-powered tools.

This project shows what’s possible when strong product thinking meets real-world impact in education 💙
