Staffordshire Chambers of Commerce is proud to unveil an exciting and groundbreaking initiative aimed at driving ethical business practices, enhancing sustainability outcomes and fostering positive regional impact – the Responsible Business Accelerator.

We are now looking for forward-thinking businesses in Stoke-on-Trent to participate in the pilot phase of this exciting new programme, spanning a period of nine months. By becoming a trial participant, you’ll gain exclusive access to this innovative service and have the unique opportunity to shape its future development.

Key Highlights of the Responsible Business Accelerator:

The Responsible Business Accelerator is designed to empower businesses across Stoke-on-Trent to enhance and measure their economic, societal, and environmental impact. It gives businesses the opportunity to:

  • Assess Your Starting Point: Evaluate your company’s current responsible business practices across five priority areas.
  • Explore Our Comprehensive Action Library: Gain access to a diverse range of actions aligned with local priorities and global sustainable development goals.
  • Action Pledges: Commit to delivering specific actions from the action library. The platform will recommend actions tailored to your business’s needs based on your initial assessment. You’ll receive guidance, resources, and templates to aid in the development, implementation, and measurement of your pledges.
  • Earn Accreditation: Successfully fulfill your action pledges within the specified timeframe to become eligible for a Responsible Business accreditation.

Interested businesses are asked to join us at Commerce House, Festival Park on 4 October from 9:00am-12:00pm. 

This scheme is available to both Chamber members and non-members.

This project is funded by the UK government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund for businesses in Stoke-on-Trent.
