Inside B Corp™ Month at Beyondly
Marked annually in March, B Corp™ Month celebrates the global movement towards a more inclusive, equitable, and fair economic system, and the organisations taking collective action to benefit people and the planet.
Certifying as a B Corp in 2022, Beyondly is proud to meet B Lab™ Standards for social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency, and to be part of a community of companies committed to using business as a force for good.
Throughout the month, the Beyondly team marked the occasion through a range of activities focussed on sustainability, community, and purpose – principles we have embedded into our DNA since day one.
Supporting Nature Restoration at Broughton Sanctuary
To kick-off the celebrations, the team swapped their desks for the spectacular outdoor surroundings of Broughton Sanctuary, contributing to the estate’s ongoing rewilding project. Alongside local customers, the day was spent removing invasive cherry laurel from woodland areas. This fast-spreading species competes with native trees and shrubs, threatening biodiversity and the health of local ecosystems.
The day provided a fantastic opportunity to connect with nature, catch up with customers outside of the workplace, and support vital nature restoration in the community.
An Evening of Celebration & Collaboration with B Local
Hosted by valued Beyondly customer and fellow B Corp, Northern Monk, Yorkshire & Humber B Local came together on 26th March to celebrate B Corp Month, with an evening of networking, collaboration, and insight.
The event unpacked the new B Corp standards and explored first-hand how companies are bringing the B Corp mark to life; as Beyondly’s own Mel Harper, Head of Marketing, Brand & Impact, shared valuable insight into harnessing the power of the B Corp symbol within branding, communications, and client work.
Turning Everyday Action into Meaningful Impact
Throughout the month, we also celebrated with B Corp-themed treats and activities for staff; from sharing fun trivia and tasty B Corp snacks, to helping them discover new favourites. With more than 10,000 certified companies worldwide, our celebrations inspired the team to think about how their everyday choices can support fellow B Corps and contribute to the collective impact the community has in driving positive change for society and the environment.
Beyond B Corp Month
B Corp Month provided the opportunity to celebrate and reflect on the important role businesses play in creating a better, fairer, and more sustainable world for all. As we continue our own journey as a B Corp, finding a better way to lead, inspire and educate to positively impact society and the environment is at the heart of everything we do; from how we support our people, community, and the planet, to the work we deliver for our customers and partners.
