Purpose, people and planet

Caring for ourselves and each other starts with caring for the world we live in. Over the last few years, we’ve been investing and laying the right foundations to deliver on our ambitious sustainability goals. And we’ve taken some meaningful steps.

Could we B any more promising?!

We’ve been awarded B Corp status - a global movement to encourage all businesses with one unifying goal – to transform the global economy to benefit all people, communities and the planet. The certification is one way B Corp measures a company’s entire social and environmental impact (also known as ESG). We’re extremely proud to have become the first health insurer in the UK to receive certification!

B Corp and Simplyhealth

B Corp is all about harnessing the power of business as a force for good. And we’ve been walking the path to do good in the world for decades in the way we contribute to society, through our positive impact on the environment, and by governing ourselves in a responsible way.

We’ve never answered to shareholders, instead we reinvest our profits into healthcare, and we improve access for all in the UK so its our customers and our community who benefit.

Becoming B Corp certified is a natural step on the journey we’ve been on for decades.
