Our Culture
We support, develop and inspire our people and our clients so that they are able to realise their true potential. Our mission is to be the firm of choice within our target markets, recognised not only for providing the highest quality advice to our clients but also for employing and developing the best people.
CSR
CSR
As a Firm we made the decision in 2015 to change our approach to fundraising after consulting with our staff. Instead of appointing a ‘Charity of the Year’; we recognise that our staff all have personal reasons for supporting their favourite charities. This has allowed BHP to support those charities which our staff care passionately about and this has proved successful. In 2023/24 alone, our staff collectively raised more than £21,000 to more than 30 charities across the UK. You can read our CSR Review of the year here.
During 2020, BHP undertook a Carbon Footprint Assessment and is actively monitoring its impact on the environment.
Staff Volunteering Day
We encourage our people to make a positive contribution to the communities we live and work in. As well as the numerous fundraising activities we get involved in, everyone has the opportunity to take a paid day to carry out voluntary work for any charitable organisation they want to assist.

Giving back to the charity sector.
Trustee training seminars – As part of our commitment to the charity sector, we have trained over 1,000 trustees over the last five years with our free of charge trustee training seminars. These seminars cover the financial and governance responsibilities of trustees as well as providing a network for trustees to share information with others and develop new insights into the running of charities.
Charity Conference
Our free charity conference is now in its eleventh year and provides updates on a variety of current issues affecting the sector as well as invaluable networking opportunities. The conference is presented by internal presenters and external speakers who are specialists in their field. In 2023, we welcomed over 100 guests from charities across the North of England to the conference in Sheffield. Click here to view a short highlights video about the BHP charity conference.
