Social Responsibility Charity Webinar:

The Clare Foundation

Middle Leader Forum: Social Responsibility – the future for business with Richard Collins

It is clear that organisations who understand their social responsibilities and explore ways in which CSR can be built into strategy are more likely to reap the rewards of enhanced competitive positions in the future, benefiting not only their shareholders but all stakeholders involved and the society at large.

  • Charities can help businesses build the right culture to achieve powerful results for the future
  • Consumers, employees, Investors, stakeholders and new recruits will not just expect to deal with responsible companies, they will insist on it
  • It is not so much what a business can do to help support a charity, it is how can charities help businesses deliver on their social responsibility
  • This contributes to both financial and social value and delivers positive impacts which will enhance the public good and help to strengthen civil society

What is CSR Accrediation?
Achieving CSR Accreditation is a visible testimony of excellence in CSR.
The accreditation helps you integrate social, environmental, ethical, human rights and consumer concerns into your business operations and strategy and it provides you with a real competitive advantage.

The establishment of a CSR Accreditation is a crucial component of a company’s competitiveness and something that should be led by the business itself. For companies, the overall aim is to achieve a positive impact on society as a whole while maximising the creation of shared value for the owners of the business, its employees, shareholders and stakeholders.

CSR Accreditation looks at your organisation’s impacts on employees, suppliers, clients and communities / charities and helps you develop an audit / report which forms the basis of your CSR road map.
