Our vision and values
Thanks to our partnership with the Good Employment Charter, 62% of our clients pay the Real Living Wage or higher. In addition, 31% have invested in their staff’s training. A significant portion of our clients, 13%, are owned or managed by individuals from diverse ethnic communities; this surpasses the national average of 6%, a testament to our unshakeable commitment to diversity and inclusivity.
Likewise, an impressive 28% of our clients have female founders, significantly higher than the national average of 16%. We also support businesses owned or managed by individuals with disabilities, with 3% of our beneficiaries in this category, while 39% of our clients are in the most deprived neighbourhoods.
