For many years, Oliver & Co have supported ethical and sustainable business practices and have tried to make a positive impact in our local community.
In recent years, we have formalised our commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), developing a CSR policy and setting up a core team to review and improve our CSR practices. The team meets regularly to discuss our programme of events, monitor progress and think of new ways we can serve our community.
We believe businesses have a responsibility to support the communities they serve. With the help of the CSR team, we actively seek out ways to make this responsibility a practical reality.
We provide our legal services pro-bono to local community initiatives for the benefit of others. This takes many forms, from ad hoc legal advice to entire business services for charitable organisations.
We offer legal services to the Hospice of the Good Shepherd at a series of Will Clinics.
We offer our Will writing services free-of-charge with our fee being donated to the Hospice. In the last 12 months, we have raised £10,045 for them.

In April 2023, we nominated West Cheshire Foodbank as our Charity of the Year. We have kicked off our fundraising efforts with a successful cake sale in May and have other exciting fundraising events planned throughout the year.
If you would like to stay in touch with these events then please follow us on social media (Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram and Twitter) as we will be posting regular updates as we go.

For many years, we have donated money as a company and supported our staff in fundraising events for many charitable organisations. These include:
We encourage professional development, and actively foster an environment of openness and understanding of mental and physical health issues. This last year we have supported our team in the many ways, including a ‘couch to 5k’ running group, personal development learning opportunities, training 7 of our staff as mental heath first aiders, free fruit and monthly dog walking (dogs not essential!).
Disabled access has always been important to us and as such our offices have disabled facilities for wheelchair users and clients with other disabilities.
We have a hearing loop in Reception and a portable hearing loop for use in meetings. Our employees have also had ‘Deaf Awareness Training’, allowing them to offer the best services to clients with hearing impairments.
We encourage all staff to think about the environment and have put several measures in place company-wide to do our bit. These have included investing in a new energy efficient climate control system to heat/cool our office, installing hand dryers in all toilets, providing reusable glasses instead of disposable plastic cups at our water dispensers and employing intelligent waste management for all our waste.
