Lettice Events is a Certified B Corporation

We are so happy to share the great news that Lettice Events has joined a community of businesses putting the social and environmental welfare at the forefront of how it operates.  We have amended how the company operates to stand by our long-term commitments to our team, clients, community and the environment.

What is B Corp?

B Lab Global explains ‘Certified B Corporations are leaders in the global movement for an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy. Unlike other certifications for businesses, B Lab is unique in our ability to measure a company’s entire social and environmental impact.’ – B Lab Global

To become a certified B Corporation, companies must demonstrate a formal commitment to being a force for good in business.  This is measured through a verified & rigorous assessment process.  Aiming to meet high standards of social and environmental performance, public transparency and accountability to balance profit and purpose.

A partner of ours Ecologi, says it perfectly ‘The B Corp movement exists to make business a force for good in the world by prioritising people and planet.’

Why is B Corp important to us?

Sustainability is in our DNA, it forms the backbone of every decision we make.  When setting out our company mission to be the most sustainable luxury events company in the UK we knew we needed to measure our efforts to achieve this goal.  We want our passion for sustainability to start with our commitment to our team and the community we serve.  Being a force for good within our industry.  These aims match the efforts of B Lab and the community of B Corporations around the world.  Becoming a certified B Corporation formalises our commitment to the future, our people and planet.

What it means for the future

Changing the way we work to formalise the commitments of being a B Corp has revolutionised our approach.  Every decision we make moving forward will be made with this fresh perspective.  Ensuring we are always looking for a better way of doing things. Committing to the Triple Lock Bottom Line, balancing profit with people and the planet.  We know this isn’t the end of our sustainability journey, there is always more to be done.  We will continue to develop and work on innovative ways to improve our business and be transparent about how we show this.  Check out our profile on the B Corporation Directory.

What it means to the Lettice Team

Lettice is built on our love of people and great hospitality. Simply, we love creating unforgettable moments paired with delicious food. One of our core values is to foster a kind, creative work environment because our sustainability starts with us. Becoming a Certified B Corporation only reinforces our company commitments and values to our clients and each other. This has been an amazing journey and we can’t wait to continue creating luxury, sustainable events whether that be at Weddings, Corporate Events or Private Parties.
