We are proud to announce that The Specialist Works are now officially certified as B Corp, joining a global movement of companies that are reinventing business to benefit all people and our shared planet. Verified by B Lab, the not-for-profit behind the B Corp movement, this achievement confirms that we meet high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability - alongside a commitment to goals beyond shareholder value.'
The news comes as the ongoing climate crisis and widening social inequality continue to pose urgent challenges to our economy. B Corp Certification assesses the entirety of a business’ operations and covers impact areas related to practices around governance, workers, community, the environment and customers. The certification process is rigorous, with companies required to provide evidence on performance while legally embedding their commitment to purpose as well as profit in their company articles.
The Specialist Works, and the whole What’s Possible Group, are now part of a growing community of over 9,700 businesses globally that have certified as B Corps. The B Corp community in the UK is one of the largest and fastest-growing in the world, with over 2,500 companies spanning a range of different industries and sizes.

“We’ve been on the B Corp journey for several years and I am immensely proud of all the hard work our team have put in to get us here. Being B Corp isn’t for competitive advantage; B Corp helps us set the bar for what good really looks like. The process has made us a better business, better for our clients, better for our people, better for our planet. I’d love it if more of our industry joined the movement.”
