How we became a trusted impact guide for a Certified B Corp mobile network

Having started working with giffgaff in 2021, we’ve developed a strong and trusted relationship supporting, guiding and challenging the team on their impact journey. We worked with them understand and plan the company's role in improving digital poverty, highlighting how they can best engage with partners and contribute solutions to this social impact issue.

With goodness running through its veins, working towards B Corp certification was an obvious step for giffgaff. As their impact partner, we supported the team on their journey to full certification.

Our partnership with giffgaff has only grown since then and we are working hard together to drive impact across the wider organisation. giffgaff is showing how a company can embed and continuously challenge itself to achieve good things and we are delighted to be journeying together.

Redefining value chain relationships to create positive impact

This project was all about creating an impact ‘ripple effect’ by aligning the client’s supply partners with its own impact journey. Working closely with the buying team, we identified the businesses’ key areas of social and environmental concern. We then co-created policies, data gathering and engagement tools to enable collaborative value chain ESG improvement.

This led to a wider research, benchmarking and advocacy project relating to their innovative impact business models.
