Corporate Social Responsibility
Charity support
We support Edward's Trust, a child bereavement charity based in Edgbaston. Founded in 1989, Edward's Trust provides family bereavement services across the West Midlands.
The charity offers:
support for parents who are bereaved or about to be bereaved of a son or daughter, whatever their age.
support for children and young people who are bereaved or about to be bereaved of a parent, sibling or carer.
a ‘Wellbeing in Bereavement’ service for bereaved parents and carers, including respite bereavement care and complementary therapies.
training and consultation for professionals working with families who are bereaved or about to be bereaved.
Spencer Shaw Solicitors provides funding for one counselling session each month as well as organising, volunteering at and taking part in fundraising events, including:
bucket collections and merchandise sales
donating raffle and tombola prizes
We also occasionally fundraise for other local charities close to our hearts.
Environmental Impact
We have taken steps to become ‘greener’ and reduce our impact on the environment.
We are ‘paper free’ as much as possible, using digital communications and storage for most of our work where legally permitted. We securely dispose of necessary confidential waste with The Hill Company, which is accredited for Environmental and Security standards.
We reduce unnecessary travel by offering remote advice to clients, and home working to staff where suitable.
Our office has recycling stations for food, plastic and paper waste, which we encourage staff to use.
We use Smart Pension for our pensions, which invests over 70% of its funds in companies with strong environmental, social and governance credentials.
The Local Community
As an SME ourselves we are keen to support independent businesses and prioritise local businesses and SMEs as suppliers where possible. We are proud to use local businesses for our office supplies, IT, accounting, design, branding, printing, signage, website, videography and Christmas trees.
We also make an effort to support the Harborne community. This includes using local independent venues for away days and social events, and sponsoring materials for St Mary's Church, Harborne.
