Environment, Social and Governance (ESG)
The Benevolent Society recognises the growing importance of ensuring that we are conducting our organisational activities in a sustainable way; by reducing our impact on the environment, continuing work to alleviate social issues and promote, protect and respect human rights, whilst ensuring our governance systems and processes are robust, transparent and effective. We are at the beginning of our ESG journey and this ESG Statement steps out what we are currently doing in all three E,S and G domains.
