In a recent blog post, the funeral franchise dove into how it had become the first UK funeral director to gain B Corp certification recognising it for its positive environmental and social impact.
In the words of Full Circle Funerals, “Becoming a B Corp is a huge achievement for a business of our size and shows just how hard we are working to ensure we have a positive impact on the people we support, the community, our team and the world in which we live and work. We are particularly proud to be the first UK funeral business to become accredited and this has only been possible thanks to the enthusiasm and sheer inspiration of our lovely team.”
Describing the rigorous accreditation process for becoming a B Corp, the funeral franchise explained that it saw Full Circle Funerals “being assessed on a whole range of measures”, such as: How Full Circle Funerals creates benefits for its employees, how Full Circle Funerals has a positive impact on the bereaved people it supports, how Full Circle Funerals improves the communities it works in and how Full Circle Funerals respects the environment.
The franchise also took the time in this blog post to share what was next, explaining that, “Becoming a B Corp has been a fascinating and exciting journey which has taught us so much about ourselves, our impact on others and our potential to become a force for good. We are constantly learning and will continue to review how we work, follow best practice and talk about what we can do better.”
Overall, said Full Circle Funerals, “We are hugely committed to sharing what we have learnt with others who are on a similar journey and would welcome other businesses to contact us to talk about what we did and how we made it through the certification process.” If you’d like to join this game-changing franchise network making waves in the funeral industry, you can find out more about becoming a Full Circle Funerals franchisee via its profile page, linked above.
