Social Impact

We don’t operate in a bubble. Instead, we see ourselves as part of the wider world, determined to have on impact on society through our work, thought leadership, deep links with local communities and, increasingly, through valuable pro bono work.

This philosophy has tremendous buy-in from our people who often say that this is a feature of our culture which first attracted them to Trowers, and which keeps them working here.

It has also underpinned our extensive corporate responsibility programme and has seen us achieve so much, so far. But recently, we’ve been asking ourselves: “Could we do more? And, by working together in a more streamlined and strategic way, can we have far greater social impact?

The answer, we believe, is a resounding “Yes!” and we have revitalised our approach to corporate responsibility with a new and ambitious, three-year Social Impact strategy to do just that.

The strategy, which has been endorsed and is being led by the Strategic Board, is built around three priority areas. They are to: 

• Ensure fairness and access to justice, in the UK and internationally.
• Advance social mobility and diversity and inclusion in our profession and more widely in society.
• Help build a world that is environmentally and socially sustainable.

This framework reflects how – as a leading law firm and a responsible business pursuing a challenging environmental, social and governance (ESG) agenda – we can use our skills, connections, knowledge and expertise
