One year on from our B Corp Certification, we're proud to share our first-ever B Impact Report.
This report is a reflection of what we stand for at Blu Sky. It offers real insight into who we are, what we believe and how we’re driving positive change across our business, for our clients, our team, our community and the planet.
But before we dive into what’s inside, let’s go over the basics.
What is B Corp?
B Corp is a global movement of businesses committed to balancing profit and purpose. Certified by the non-profit B Lab, B Corps meet rigorous standards for social and environmental impact across five key areas: governance, workers, community, environment and customers.
To achieve certification, businesses must score at least 80 on the B Impact Assessment. We scored 82.8 on our first attempt, well above the global median. But we’re only just getting started.
Publishing an Impact Report each year is part of our ongoing responsibility as a B Corp. It helps us share our progress transparently, from how we’re improving our B Impact Score, to how we’re holding ourselves accountable.
Our journey to certification
We’ve never been a typical accountancy firm. Blu Sky was built on the belief that finance should be strategic, people-focused and values-led. Becoming a B Corp in 2024 marked an important milestone for us – a formal recognition of the way we’ve always done business.
Our B Corp status is more than a recognition of our efforts. It’s a promise we make to our clients, stakeholders and wider community that we’ll continue to do what’s right – not what’s easy.
This year’s highlights
Here’s a quick snapshot of what we’ve achieved since certification:
- Sustainability: We’ve completed Carbon Literacy Training, introduced monthly carbon footprint tracking, and continue to work towards Net Zero.
- Team Culture: We’ve invested in wellbeing, career development and hosted our most meaningful offsite yet.
- Community: From team volunteering days to fundraising challenges, we’ve continued to give back and support the causes that matter to us.
- Clients: We’re embedding ESG into our services, helping purpose-driven businesses grow in ways that are both financially and ethically sound.
What’s Next?
Our B Corp journey is only just beginning. We’re aiming to score 90-100 when we recertify in 2027, and we’re already making strides. That means:
- Expanding our ESG advisory services.
- Strengthening our community partnerships.
- Deepening support for our clients.
- Continuing to invest in our team and culture.
