Corporate Social Responsibility

At Carson McDowell we believe we have a role as individuals and as a firm to foster a positive working environment, to play a responsible role in our community and to help build a more sustainable society.

At the heart of what we do

At Carson McDowell we believe we have a role as individuals and as a firm to make a difference for our clients, our people, the environment and the communities we are a part of every day. In short, our strategy is to place corporate social responsibility (CSR) at the heart of what we do.

Our commitment to being a responsible business is embodied in our core values and demonstrated through our culture, actions, processes, and policies. Through adopting responsible behaviour, practices and contributing resources, we aim to effectively participate in the social, environmental and economic progress of Northern Ireland.

We are committed to

Adopting responsible behaviour to effectively participate in the social, environmental and economic progress across our community.

Protecting the environment by achieving high standards of environmental performance, preventing pollution and minimising the impact of our business operations.

Maintaining a truly inclusive workplace where diversity, equity and belonging is promoted and embedded in our culture.

Investing in our people through learning and development to ensure they reach their full potential and benefit from great opportunities to pursue their career goals.

Putting our clients at the heart of everything we do and ensuring through articles, seminars and workshops that they are aware of all legal issues that may impact them or their business.

Supporting our local community through charitable partnerships, donations, volunteering and are involvement with educational initiatives.

Our people are our greatest asset

CSR is driven by representatives from across the firm, including partners, lawyers and professional services employees. The integral role our team plays and the engagement we have seen ensures we continually find new innovative ways to develop and implement our programme and achieve our responsible business targets and objectives.

Adding value through partnerships

We work with fantastic charities across our offices, supporting their initiatives and campaigns. Every January, our staff vote to select a new charity to support and partake in various fundraising activities to support them.
