Murrell Associates LLP achieves B Corp status, strengthening Cornwall’s network of socially responsible businesses We’re thrilled to announce that Murrell Associates LLP has achieved B Corp certification, joining a growing number of businesses in Cornwall committed to driving positive social and environmental change. The certification, awarded by non-profit B Lab UK, recognises businesses that meet rigorous standards of accountability and transparency around their impact on workers, customers, the community and the environment. A community effort Our B Corp journey has been a real team effort, with some incredible support from the local business community to help guide us through the certification process. In 2023 we joined the B23 Initiative, run by Wildanet, the Cornwall Chamber of Commerce and Leap, which brought together like-minded businesses to support one another in their B Corp journeys. Our client Finisterre — a Cornwall-based sustainable clothing brand which achieved B Corp certification in 2018 — offered support and guidance along the way too. Tom Kay, Founder at Finisterre, said, “It’s been fantastic to see Murrell Associates achieve B Corp status and we’re proud to have played a part in their journey. Local businesses supporting each other embodies the spirit of our community, too.” Jenny Harbord, Partner at Murrell Associates, said, “We’re excited to be part of a thriving community of B Corps in Cornwall. We send our heartfelt thanks to everyone involved in the B23 programme, and Tom at Finisterre, for their inspiration and encouragement in completing the assessment. “This accreditation not only celebrates the progress we’ve made, but also creates exciting opportunities for growth as we focus on enhancing the areas identified in the business impact assessment. “Our B Corp status will also allow us to support our clients in meeting their own social and environmental objectives. We’re proud to be the 28th law firm in the UK to achieve B Corp certification and with nearly 10,000 firms across the country, there’s a growing opportunity for more advisors to align their services with the values of social and environmental responsibility.” https://lnkd.in/eAHKMPpd #CertifiedBCorporation

Managing Director of Cockwells Modern and Classic Boatbuilding, Dean Short said: “Cockwells has been actively seeking support in the marine sector to move the business to the next phase in its business plan – including the production of this year’s new model, the Duchy 45. Fellow Falmouth-based superyacht builders and refitters, Pendennis, are perfectly placed to provide that support and we are delighted to be moving forward with them.” Cockwells and Pendennis have worked together for many years with a number of Pendennis superyachts having commissioned Cockwells’ highly customised tenders. Both companies are also known for their outstanding track record in terms of developing a multi-talented workforce, for innovation, apprentice training and excellence in all aspects of yacht building, and will work together to continue to develop their in-house teams. The Pendennis Group consists of Pendennis Shipyard, a dedicated superyacht service facility in Falmouth; a Mediterranean marina and Technical Service Centre near Barcelona – Pendennis Vilanova – and a luxury bespoke interior manufacturer, Norfolk Interiors. Toby Allies, Managing Director of the Pendennis Group explained: “Cockwells shares many of the values that are integral to the Pendennis Group and serves many of the same customers and contacts. Partnering with Cockwells will expand Pendennis’ offer to our client base within the superyacht sector.” He added: “Cockwells’ activity complements our core group strategy and with the company’s strong forward order book and ambitious plans for expansion, we are excited to welcome Cockwells to the Pendennis Group.” Dave Cockwell, Founder of Cockwells Modern and Classic Boatbuilding, and now Sales and Technical Director, has spent 28 years growing the company from its humble beginnings. With the company now building Duchy and Hardy semi-production vessels as well as bespoke, luxurious superyacht tenders, global demand for Cockwells’ boats is increasing along with their size. Dave commented: “Over the past 28 years, we have grown from renting a tiny space in Underfall Boatyard in Bristol with one apprentice, to operating three sites in Cornwall with more than 140 employees. I am delighted that we are joining forces with the Pendennis Group. With the backing of an established global superyacht brand, Cockwells will grow further and meet the demands of our ever-increasing client base”. Cockwells will continue to operate independently with the existing management team headed by Managing Director, Dean Short with Dave Cockwell retaining his role of Sales and Technical Director.
