Sustainability reporting services

ESG reporting services

Share your success

Whatever framework, platform, or format you use, your sustainability report is a key deliverable in communicating your performance and impacts. ESG reporting allows you to:

  • Comply with CSRD and TCFD
  • Collate all sustainability work in one place, helping you clearly measure environmental and social performance
  • Communicate your business' positive work to stakeholders, improving reputation
  • Enhance your organisation’s trustworthiness by demonstrating transparency
  • Demonstrate progress on your goals, targets, and KPIs

Sustainability reporting frameworks

Grain can help you align to and report with global frameworks including: 

  • Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD)
  • Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)
  • Global Reporting Initiative (GRI)
  • ISO 14001
  • UN Sustainable Development Goals
  • Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB)
  • B Corporation
  • UN Global Compact
  • Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR)

Industry-specific reporting

We have experience working with clients in a wide variety of sectors, meaning we can help you align to industry specific sustainability standards. Examples include:

  • Law: Legal Sustainability Alliance
  • Construction: Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM)
  • Textiles and fashion: The Better Cotton Initiative (BCI), the Higg Index, BCSI

Get in touch for help to assess, manage and improve the environmental, social, and governance aspects of your business. Many of these frameworks may be used in conjunction, often with one supporting the other and aligning in ways that make them useful to your organisation.

What does a report include?

Sustainability reports disclose company information not included in a typical annual report, delving into social, environmental, and governance impacts that are just as essential to organisational sustainability as economic factors.

Annual sustainability reporting is a useful tool for internal and external stakeholder engagement and a means to avoid greenwashing. Sustainability reports disclose facts and figures, and they are intended to show progress and improvement over time. Sustainability reports allow you to transparently communicate your targets, how you intend to reach them, and where you are in your journey.

Why work with Grain?

Grain has the breadth and depth of experience you need to produce a sustainability or impact report. Ideally this will be part of your annual reporting cycle, comprising fully integrated ESG and financial disclosures.

We can take you through the full journey from choosing the most appropriate standards, guidelines, and frameworks for your organisation, to helping you to dig out the right data and establish a robust reporting regime. We’ve also got the rich communications, design and visualisation expertise you need to ensure your sustainability metrics and disclosures are transparent and easily understood. From copywriting and content creation to the option of design according to your brand guidelines, we offer a ‘one-stop sustainability shop’!

“Grain is a very valuable and trusted partner. They have quickly and fully grasped our complex organization, our ambition to become a more sustainable company and what is at stake for us. We have really moved our green journey in the right direction with their guidance and support. Also, they are always positive and a pleasure to work with — something not to take for granted!”
Sophia KazoglouGlobal Communication & Sustainability Manager, Nordic Pharma
“Pegasus had a challenge in identifying how sustainability could be measured within the industry and our own organisation. We decided that partnering up with Grain was without a doubt the best option. They had all the expertise in sustainability and in undertaking all the necessary research that we really valued and were able to offer the in-depth detail we were looking for. We were able to pull together a Sustainability Strategy for the future of Pegasus with positive results. Grain provided value for money and continue to stay connected regularly. We would happily return to Grain for future guidance and advice.”
Sam KerbyChief Finance and Group Services Executive Officer, Pegasus Group
"We chose Grain to support us, initially due to our shared values and passions for the people and the planet. However, the support that we received was so much more than we were expecting. Their in-depth knowledge and understanding of the B Corp process was incredible and their ability to simplify the most confusing of questions was invaluable. I believe that their input hugely reduced the time we spent on the application, allowing us to really focus on the areas we needed to research and work on. The end result seemed so out of reach, but Grain helped us make this a reality — and we’ve made some great friends along the way."
Victoria WattsDirector of Operations, Xytal
“Grain has been the driving force to move Rupert’s sustainability programme from good intentions and high-level policy to more integrated reporting systems and management tools. The work with Grain identified the key material issues faced by the business, areas where we were doing well and others where we were deficient. It was important for us to work with a group with experience outside the extractives sector to provide some external perspective on the mining industry.”
Thomas CredlandHead of Corporate Development, Rupert Resources
“Plastics Europe recently defined a new purpose and strategy revolving around sustainability. We chose Grain to support us in articulating our strategy and to reflect it in a rebranding, with a new logo and visual identity, strapline, website including copywriting and marketing materials. Their work helped us gain consensus with many stakeholder groups, repositioning Plastics Europe and providing us with new tools for effective engagement and communication.”
Sylvie AitkenCommunications Director, Plastics Europe
“Working with Grain brought clarity and direction to our energy and enthusiasm, giving us a laser-focus on the key topics, approaches, and opportunities that would allow us to make the most positive impact possible.”
Josh PitmanManaging Director, Priory Direct
“Grain have been invaluable during our B Corp journey, providing us with clarity and support throughout. They have helped us recognise our achievements to date and guided our social and environmental plans for the future. Using their knowledge and experience, Madelyn and her team have ensured that our B Corp submission is the strongest it could be. But most importantly, they have inspired us to be a better practice for our team, for our clients and for everyone who lives, works and visits our buildings and neighbourhoods.”
Denise HeseltineDirector, Mæ Architects
“As a multi-generational family business established in 1947, here at Sharon Lee we have always put people first. We wanted to become a more sustainable company and to be able to communicate that to our customers. We chose to work with Grain because of their experience in fashion, and we’re very happy with the results, particularly the sustainability report which clearly sets out our goals and achievements.”
Danny ButterfieldManaging Director, Sharon Lee
“Grain Sustainability have been invaluable in the creation and growth of Sustainable Amersham, from setting up the website and email account to assisting with social media output, and guiding those of us who are less tech savvy! Their knowledge and ability to communicate with the public has been incredibly helpful and enabled us to build the organistion from a small group of friends concerned about the environment to an organisation with 150 members, 665 followers on Instagram and 570 members of our Facebook group. We are very grateful for their ongoing input.”
Anne FulleloveSecretary, Sustainable Amersham
