Reported risks and mitigations
- Risk: The highest risk occurs in our supply chain, if raw materials are sourced from countries that are conflict-affected, have poor human rights protections or are in an environmentally fragile state.
- Area: Within your supply chains
- Tier: Tier 3 suppliers and below
- Group: Women Migrants Refugees Children
- Location: China
- Mitigation: We operate in accordance with the International Bill of Human Rights (comprising the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights). We also take into account the UN Framework and Guiding Principles, as well as the ETI Base Code, OECD and ILO guidelines and principles, and ensure that our policies and practices evolve accordingly.
- Risk: Service providers we contract with present risks, e.g. cleaning, construction, waste management, events and hospitality.
- Tier: Tier 1 suppliers
- Group: Women Migrants Refugees
- Location: United Kingdom
- Mitigation: Our Vendor Code of Conduct includes requirements founded on the conventions of the ILO, which are guided by international human rights principles and encompassed by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. All active suppliers must read, sign and adhere to it, or publish an equivalent commitment which embeds basic business ethics principles, including adherence to local and national laws and regulations. More information can be found in our Modern Slavery Statement.
- Risk: There is a possibility of internal risks linked to poor recruitment and management practices, lower skilled roles, low pay, excessive working hours, poor working conditions and inadequate training.
- Area: Within your own operations
- Group: Women Other vulnerable groups
- Mitigation: We maintain strong colleague engagement through a variety of interactive channels and are officially recognised as a Great Place To Work® reflecting good culture, policies and practices. We implement financial initiatives to protect and support lower paid workers, inc. benefits tailored to support the physical, mental and financial wellbeing of all colleagues. We pay the National Living Wage and above in the UK, and at least the State minimum in the US.

This is an exact normalised company-name match, not a registrar-confirmed ownership link. Another legal entity can have the same or a very similar name. UKIPO data is a historical 2018 snapshot; verify the owner and current status before relying on it.

PSC records are company-filed public-register information. When the exact same displayed individual name occurs at multiple companies, BritDB offers a non-indexed cross-reference page. It is a name match only, not proof that the records describe the same person. Service addresses and partial dates of birth are deliberately omitted.
05 Charity register
Charity Commission links
No exact company-number link in this snapshot
The Charity Commission extract did not explicitly associate this Companies House number with a charity. BritDB does not use a name-only match to fill the gap.
This company-level check covers the Charity Commission for England and Wales. Links are accepted only when the official extract supplies this exact company registration number. Scottish charities now have separate OSCR profiles, but OSCR’s bulk fields do not provide a Companies House number, so BritDB does not infer a company link.
06 Northern Ireland charity register
CCNI exact company links
No unambiguous company-number link found
The CCNI source number did not resolve uniquely to this Companies House record. BritDB did not use a name or address match.
CCNI publishes company numbers without a jurisdiction prefix. BritDB links only when the plausible padded UK and NI candidates resolve to exactly one Companies House company.
07 Sanctions screening
UK Sanctions List
No exact business-registration-number link found
The imported UK Sanctions List did not supply this Companies House number as a UK-linked business identifier. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
No exact link is not sanctions clearance. UK restrictions can apply through ownership or control even where an entity is not separately named. Always use the current official list and obtain appropriate advice for a legally significant decision.
08 Public procurement
Find a Tender links
No exact GB-COH link in this snapshot
Find a Tender did not explicitly identify this Companies House number in a procurement party. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
These links use only the GB-COH identifier supplied in the procurement record. A company may have other public-sector work that is absent, older, below publication thresholds or published without a Companies House identifier.
09 Environmental register
Environment Agency waste registrations
No exact company-number registration linked
The licensed Environment Agency subset did not contain this exact Companies House number. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
This is a privacy-reduced, exact-company subset. The full official register also includes sole traders and applicants without a matching Companies House number. Check the current Environment Agency register before relying on registration status.
