Meet the Chief Pollinators &

A chance meeting at a local B Corp event was just the start of our story. We soon learned that we're both passionate about the potential that business can have to make a difference in the world. But we know that the challenge for small companies can sometimes feel too great, too distant, and overwhelming to face.

So we thought we'd do something about that. As trained B Leaders coming from different areas of expertise, we knew we had knowledge and experience to share. So, after ample amounts of coffee and cake, The Pollinator was born.

We nurture small businesses to have a positive impact in shaping a better world.

FAQs

What is B Corp?

B Corp is a global certification for businesses committed to social and environmental good. Think of it as a stamp proving a company doesn't just aim for profit, but positively impacts people and the planet too.

What is a B Leader?

We are B Corp specialists, who are trained and accredited by B Lab UK to develop the knowledge and tools to guide businesses through the B Corp certification process, and use it as a tool for change.

What is Climate Fresk?

Climate Fresk is an interactive workshop tool designed to educate participants on climate change through collaborative learning, using scientifically-backed facts from IPCC reports.

Is it only for big companies?

Absolutely not. In fact, it’s easier to absorb the learnings when you are smaller. B Corp certification isn't size-specific; it's for companies, big or small, committed to social and environmental responsibility, ensuring all businesses can prioritize purpose alongside profit.

Why should my business become a B Corp?

Only you can know whether the B Corp journey compliments the values, passion and ambition for your business. Here’s what we think. The planet is at a tipping point and never has it been more critical for businesses to act responsibly. But there’s also an opportunity to make businesses thrive and succeed, whilst using profit for purpose. We believe that that acting like a B Corporation is the best way for us all to take that opportunity.
