The B Corp certification recognises organisations that meet the highest standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. It’s a rigorous process that assesses every aspect of how a business operates, from how it supports its people, to its impact on clients, communities, and the planet.
Becoming a B Corp is not about changing who we are but about affirming what has always driven us. From the beginning, Legacy Futures has been built on a belief that business can, and should be, a force for good - helping charities, partners, and the wider sector achieve meaningful, lasting impact.
Earning this certification reflects the care, responsibility, and integrity that underpin everything we do. It also represents a commitment to continuous improvement - to keep learning, evolving, and holding ourselves to account as we strive to make a positive difference through our work.
We’re grateful to our dedicated team, clients, and partners who share our values and have supported us on this journey. Together, we’ll continue shaping a future where purpose and performance go hand in hand.
