We take our responsibilities to society seriously and try to make a difference across four areas of impact: education, environment, equality and poverty. The dedication and passion of our volunteers has had real and measurable impact across our wider community, as well as within the firm, and we’re incredibly proud of what they’ve achieved.
Pro-bono: creating equal access to justiceProviding everyone with equal access to justice plays an important role in the building and growth of societies, allowing people to better understand and use the law and legal services in the protection of their rights. Obviously as a law firm we’re ideally placed to offer greater access to justice through pro-bono advice and support, and as an Osborne Clarke employee you can volunteer with organisations such as Z2K and the Bristol Law Centre. |

Environment: supporting a sustainable futureClimate change is here, and no other single factor will determine the future of our world more than this. It’s why we’ve made Decarbonisation one of the pillars of our client offering. But recognising that responsibility starts at home, as a firm we’re committed to doing whatever we can to operate more sustainably. We are also one of a few UK law firms to announce our commitment to science based targets as part of our Net Zero Strategy. |

Education: a powerful route to empowermentEducation offers those who may be economically and socially marginalized the opportunity to rise above their individual circumstances and participate fully within society. With this in mind, we support a wide range of educational organisations with whom you can volunteer your time, including our flagship program ‘The Bridge’ with a local school which aims to provide career inspiration and employability skills to support the next generation. |

We work to make sure that we do business in a fair and sustainable way. That means committing to ethical procurement, fair supplier management, an open dialogue with our stakeholders and good governance.
