Make publishes B Corp Impact Report for 2024/2025

Make has published its second B Corp Impact Report, which showcases some of the environmental and socially conscious work we’ve undertaken during the 2024/25 reporting period.

Transparency is an integral part of our culture as an employee-owned practice, and we see this reflected in the principles of B Corp. Due to the turbulence of the last year, we have not achieved every action set in our first impact statement, but we’ve been careful not to compromise our B Impact score and have already begun a review of the new standards to ensure we’re well placed for recertification in 2027.

We will begin preparing for this in Q1 of 2026 with a detailed analysis of any gaps between the current impact areas and the new standards. The new standards see B Corp shift from a point-scoring system to a framework of minimum requirements across seven impact topics: Purpose & Stakeholder Governance; Climate Action; Human Rights; Fair Work; Environmental Stewardship & Circularity; Justice, Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (JEDI); and Government Affairs & Collective Action. We look forward to reflecting on these topics and exploring how we can continue to strive for positive action both as a business and a member of the B Corp community.

In the year ahead, we plan to target one key goal for each of the current five impact areas, assigning a dedicated lead to establish a route map for achieving this goal in line with our wider business strategy. We believe focusing on these five goals will allow us to achieve the maximum impact for Make, society and the environment.

Make became a B Corp in 2023, achieving a score of 133.8 which made us one of the top scoring architecture practices in the UK, with our highest scores in the Governance and Workers categories. See a full breakdown of our score here.
