Why we supported the Better Business Act Day

Raising the bar for business practices and elevating ethical business standards is what we’re all about.

In April, our team at betternotstop made our way down to Westminster to call on policy makers and MPs alike to support the Better Business Act.

What is the Better Business Act?

The Better Business Act is a piece of legislation that would revolutionise the landscape of UK business and pave the way for a sustainable future by changing section 172 of the Companies Act.

Changing section 172 of the Companies Act would allow us to move away from the shareholder primacy, profit-seeking model, and instead ensure businesses are legally responsible for benefiting all stakeholders – workers, customers, communities and the environment.

betternotstop are proud to be alongside 2,000 other businesses who back the act, and want to wake up to a world where profit doesn’t come at the cost of our planet.

How can I make a difference?

We strongly encourage all supporters of our business and beyond to take the first step and engage with your MP to enact change Section 172 and be a part of shaping a brighter tomorrow. At betternotstop, we believe that change is not just possible, but achievable by taking action today.
