Chilworth Partnership and our sister company Venture Recruitment Partners are growing. As our business grows, so does our responsibility.
Through social and environmental action, we are on a mission to have a positive impact on the planet and our community.
Our values and work ethic extend beyond offering a tailored and personable service to our clients and partners. We are also committed to using our position in the local market and leveraging the skills of our team to support our community. Through implementing a strong CSR initiative in our everyday business operations, we want to provide social awareness of the difference small businesses can make.
We are continuously evaluating our business practices to seek further guidance on how we can improve our Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives and ensure that we are accountable and take action.
Sustainability
From 2020-2022 we worked with SQSTR to offset our carbon emissions by planting trees for each candidate we placed into a new role.
However, in 2023 we wanted to extend our efforts beyond planting trees. So we sought to improve our environmental commitment by partnering with Carbon Neutral Britain to alleviate the impact of our business on the planet.
We calculated the negative output from our travel and the day-to-day running of our offices and events.
We then chose to support Carbon Neutral Britain's woodland regeneration and reforestation projects to help them continue their amazing work and take responsibility for the impact our business has on the environment.

Charity
We have partnered with Naomi House & Jacksplace for 9 years now and are determined to make our partnership stronger each year.
Forming long-lasting and meaningful relationships is a value at the core of our business and applies to our external partners as well as our clients and candidates.
In 2022 our Director of Executive Search Matt Whitton took part in a 400-mile cycle from Gretna Green to Southampton and raised over £2,600 for Naomi House and Jacksplace.
Our sister company Venture Recruitment Partners hosted their first Charity Quiz Night in 2023 raising £420 for Naomi House, and hosted a further quiz in 2024.
We also ran a pit stop at the Clarendon Way Walk in both 2023 and 2024, providing walkers with refreshments and renewed motivation. This year Matt Whitton also took part in the walk alongside our Operations Manager Lisa Smith, and Venture Recruitment Partners' Senior Consultant Nadia Payne raising £645!
For Easter 2024 Matt Whitton, Nadia Payne, and Chloe Williams also visited Naomi House to meet some of the team and explore the care and attention that goes into running their hospices.
We feel strongly about continuing our partnership with the Naomi House & Jacksplace team and look forward to supporting them for years to come. They always have been and always will be at the centre of our CSR initiative.
