Our Impact Report

Last year, we launched our first impact report, introducing Kerv, our mission, our values and our sustainability manifesto, outlining key objectives across five strategic themes.

Reflecting on our journey, this report showcases the progress we’ve made on each initiative, as well as our ongoing and upcoming efforts to drive positive impact for our people, our customers, our society, and our planet.

As part of our annual rededication, we have revisited our commitments, transparently reported on our progress, and evolved our initial Manifesto into the more ambitious and impactful Manifesto 2.0. Read our impact report here!

    #3

    We will increase positive community engagement by funding staff’s impact directed participation in 5 sustainability focused events.

    Because our work should speak for itself, we will vigorously invest to make more of what we do, about what really matters.

    Because how we do it is just as important as what we do, we will use independent agencies to measure our performance against the highest standards.

    Governance for good

    #13

    We will actively promote mission led governance by continuing our B Corp journey through to achieving certification.

Our mission

Establishing Kerv as a beacon of sustainability

How do you create a business which is a genuine force for good? How do you make sure the way we approach this supersedes any individual? That ambition can accelerate independently of leadership?

Quote from Francis

Our manifesto has evolved into a living commitment, serving as an effective tool to lead our ambition and generate significant collateral benefit. It has also underscored the need to enhance the data that informs our decisions; how we quantify what we believe to be leading indicators, and the ultimate impact of the initiatives we invest in.

This is how we will create a business that is a genuine force for good.

I want Kerv to have a genuine impact on wider society. I don’t just mean the direct communities where we have operations, I want to find a way to benefit a broad range of people who are in tougher situations than we are.
