Pro bono
We encourage our people to use their legal knowledge on a pro bono basis to help people in the communities where we live and work, who otherwise lack access to the services we offer.
Building sustainable communities
Global charitable initiative 2019/20
Through our global charitable initiative for 2020, we are committed to promoting environmental sustainability in our local communities. For the purpose of this initiative, we have defined sustainability as
- Climate change,
- Protection of the environment on land and below water,
- Responsible consumption and supply,
- Sustainable cities.
We are keen that each region or jurisdiction interprets this theme in a way that resonates with their local environmental sustainability focus, and partners with or supports their preferred local charities in the area of environmental sustainability.
Our global goals are to:
- Raise awareness of the importance of improving our environmental sustainability – in our business, in our local communities and as individuals;
- Improve our own environmental best practice and focus on creating an enduring legacy in environmental sustainability,
- Encourage behavioural change on the basis that small changes can – collectively – make a big difference;
- Provide pro bono and volunteering opportunities for our people and join like-minded clients in community engagement and fundraising activities
