ABOUT US

Corporate Social Responsibility

At Corker Binning we believe that all businesses, large and small, can contribute to their communities.

We currently support four charities annually.

Corker Binning partners and employees also take an active role in a number of legal associations, charities and services, and several commit a regular amount of time to pro bono work. For example, Andrew Smith and Danielle Reece-Greenhalgh have been providing pro bono advice concerning extradition and INTERPOL to Andy Hall, the human rights activist currently facing multiple criminal proceedings in Thailand. David Corker and his son Robbie, who has severe autism, ran the London Marathon on 24 April 2016 and 22 April 2018 in aid of The Saracens Sports Foundation (SSF). SSF is a programme run by the Saracens Rugby Club, which supports and funds sports projects for individuals who seem disadvantaged and isolated.
