We are delighted to announce that we recently received the prestigious ESG Mark accreditation.
This distinguished accolade recognises the firm’s deep-seated commitment to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) standards.
The award stands as a testament to the firm’s dedication to fostering a positive impact on the environment, its clients, employees, and local communities.
We have always held these things as part of our core values having previously adopted renewable energy generation and electric car charging at our office in Taunton and being a long-term supporter of local and national charities.
The ESG Mark was therefore an obvious next step to draw these things together. In accordance with our desire to have staff at all levels involved in moving the firm forward, a project team, with representatives from across the firm, was formed to review the firm’s current position and recommending improvements, as well as engaging with ESG Mark in relation to the accreditation.
Simon Rowe, Partner and Chairman at Milsted Langdon said: “We are honoured to receive the ESG Mark, an accolade that resonates with our core values and aspirations for a more sustainable and equitable future.
“The project team have done an amazing job both in helping us to attain this status but more importantly in highlighting areas where we can continue to improve. Obtaining the ESG Mark is not the end of the journey, but a highlight along the way. The important thing now is to continue to improve and strive to do better.
“For us, it’s not just about doing business; it’s about doing business right. We are dedicated to elevating the communities we serve, championing diversity, and ensuring that our impact on the planet is a positive one. Importantly this is not just a goal for me as Chairman or the partners, but all of us that make up Milsted Langdon.”
On top of our own ESG goals, we are offering valuable advice to our clients on related matters such as the benefits of ‘green’ taxation and ESG investments.
