I love Skandinavisk, a founding member of the B Corp Beauty Coalition that recertified in 2023, scoring 30pts higher! My fave scent is SKOG – I close my eyes, inhale deeply & imagine wandering through a forest, surrounded by nature’s beauty & calmness

Hawksmoor has shown how to marry great food with strong ethical principles and sustainable sourcing at heart. Their bone marrow is phenomenal.
-
Annie Oliver
Head of Growth
Our over consumption of clothing is fuelling an environmental and human rights crisis- but clothing brands like UK based Baukjen are modelling a new way of doing business. A commitment to slow fashion, carbon neutrality, and ethical supply chain management are challenging industry norms.

Bleddyn Harris
Head of People and Culture
It has to be TOTM, the Wales-based B Corp on a mission to inspire better, sustainable ways to manage periods. Their organic menstrual products have made over 4 million periods more sustainable and recovered the equivalent of over 10 million plastic applicators from the ocean! Da iawn, TOTM!

Abel and Cole are my choice. Provider of good quality food. I love that they work with a range of smaller producers. Giving opportunity to lesser known brands. Sustainable delivery is important to them - reusing their delivery boxes. They also offer recycling for items not widely recycled.
-
Ellie Adamson
Communications Coordinator
A difficult decision but... I find it inspiring how Divine Chocolate's mission goes beyond selling delicious chocolate. It is committed to fighting exploitation in cocoa supply chains and is co-owned by its Ghanian farmers, meaning they receive a share of the company's profits.
-

Director of Finance & Operations
As well as delicious peanut butter, I think Whole Earth are great pioneers and leaders – producing planet-friendly food for decades.

Head of Community
It has to be COOK - their RAW Talent programme helps people into work after prison or homelessness, and their delicious food has been a lifesaver in my first year as a parent!

For me it's Kin + Carta. B Corp is about leaders, and as the first B Corp on the London Stock Exchange, they're leading by example...other companies will follow in their footsteps!

The B Corp that gets my vote is House of Baukjen, a family run clothing brand on a mission for change in the fashion industry. Actively fighting 'fast fashion' as well as campaigning for better practices in the industry. I'm a real advocate for some of the timeless pieces on their website too!

Jo Hambleton
People Operations Manager
My favourite B Corp has to be Aesop, not only does it smell great but they also use plant based products and have never tested their ingredients or products on animals!

One+all, a Greater Manchester-based schoolwear company, live and breath B Corp values. They are also great advocates in the region, promoting change across different business networks.
-
Laura Pitkin
Head of Operations
Wild is on a mission to remove single-use plastic from personal care products. Their natural deodorant comes in refills made of compostable bamboo pulp, and I love my refillable deodorant case. As well as diverting waste from landfill, they have also planted over 300,000 trees.
-
Lucy Brown
Interim Recertification Lead
Too Good To Go connects users with surplus food from businesses at a discount price - that would otherwise go to waste. It's innovative and benefits everyone involved, including the planet! Their Instagram account also has super useful tips on eating seasonally and saving food waste at home.

It's so hard to chose as I'm a fan of so many! I would have to go for Who Gives a Crap - not only do they deliver eco-friendly toilet roll to your house, but they donate 50% of profits to help build toilets and improve sanitation in the developing world.
-
Mhairi Littlewood
Head of Policy
Oddbox because they save wonky veg from going in bin, and it encourages me to cook what's in season!

-
Sharnique Williams
Finance officer
Tony’s Chocolonely inspires me the most not only because of my love for chocolate but for their mission to make themselves & other chocolate brands 100% slave free. They raise awareness of child labour & slavery.
