What does it mean to your business?
CSR refers to the voluntary actions your business can take, over and above any legal requirements, to address its own competitive interests and those of the wider society and community.

It is about how your business takes account of its economic, social and environmental impact in the way it operates; maximising benefits and reducing downsides.

Many companies have experienced how the benefits of partnerships with major charities have contributed to their corporate social responsibility policies.
