We all have a responsibility to be more environmentally and socially conscious. At both an individual and business level. At home, we might be all switching to oat milk and renewable energy companies, but as a business, it is often hard to know what to do.

Owned by X+Why who have achieved B-Corp status. No details have been spared a thought when turning this Whitechapel venue into a sustainable office and coworking space.

They also send zero waste to landfills, everything is either recycled, sent for composting, or turned into energy.

If you choose to take an office with X+Why, you will be required to sign their pledge for better business and commit to improving. This means you'll be surrounded by a community of other businesses all striving towards a more sustainable future.

P.S. For anyone looking to go through the B Corp application process, X+Why offers loads of support through their WhyB program plus 5 extra B Corp points if you have an office within the building.

This beautiful Hammersmith coworking and office venue are taking all of the steps necessary to become fully net-zero by 2030. They have over 200 air purifying plants within the space, including a propagation wall where you can add your own cutting if you would like! They also have a zero-waste policy and encourage a give and reuse ecosystem through their library and clothes donation boxes.

This is a wonderful coworking venue located near Kings Cross. Social responsibility is at the heart of everything they do, by giving 100% of their profits to their charity. The Only Connect charity, supports individuals recently released from prison, by helping them find work and engage in music, production, and catering courses. A very worthy cause.
