Community, planet and impact

We are always thinking about the future.  That means doing our part to tackle the world's problems.

We're making progress

Many of our clients are working through their businesses, charities and philanthropy to tackle the climate emergency, reduce inequality and support communities, and we are proud to help them make their initiatives more effective. 

We focus on our impact too. From our greener buildings program to our employee networks, we are always pushing ourselves to be better. We take on important cases on a pro bono basis, and we offer mentoring and apprenticeships as a way to broaden access to legal careers.

This is not just talk. We are seeing measurable results, for example we are tracking our carbon output at a very detailed level globally, in order to identify changes to create the greatest impact in the coming years. Our new offices in Tokyo, San Diego, Los Angeles and San Francisco are all much greener as a result. Our London office has recently achieved Planet Mark certification and we aim to achieve similar certification across all of our offices.

Achieving social impact: how OX Delivers is changing lives in Rwanda

We were delighted to welcome our client OX Delivers as we marked International Women's Day 2023, to share the incredible work they are doing in Rwanda to tackle transport poverty and create life changing opportunities for women. Thank you to our wonderful speakers from OX Delivers Simon Davis, Natalie Dowsett and Francine Uamahoro, our Withers hosts Justine Markovitz and Philip Reed, and of course everyone who attended this memorable event.
