At Milk & Honey, we’ve always believed that business should be a force for good. We didn’t just want to build a successful PR agency; we wanted to prove that commercial excellence and social responsibility are not mutually exclusive.
That vision was recently recognised at the highest level: Milk & Honey PR has been honored with The King’s Award for Enterprise in Sustainable Development.
As the UK’s most prestigious business distinction, this award validates the “purpose-first” model we’ve championed since our inception. It recognises our role as a global pioneer in responsible communications and our commitment to a sustainable future.
Doing good is good Business
For many, sustainability is a buzzword. For us, it is a core commercial strategy. We operate under a set of values that define who we are and, more importantly, who we work with:
The Clean Creatives Pledge: We do not work with fossil fuel companies.
Ethical Mandates: We refuse work with organizations that cause systemic harm.
Proven Commitment: A significant and growing portion of our annual revenue—consistently exceeding 25%—is generated through mandates where sustainability is the core brief or the client’s primary mission.
Far from limiting our growth, these values have become our greatest competitive advantage. They have attracted a portfolio of world-changers, from Luker Chocolate supporting Colombian cocoa communities to North Sails driving active ocean restoration.
Moving markets and mindsets
As our Founder and Group CEO, Kirsty Leighton, often says:
“Communication agencies shape global conversations and inspire global action. It means we have an outsized responsibility and an outsized opportunity. Milk & Honey has spent years proving you don’t have to compromise excellence to do the right thing.”
Whether we are helping the European Climate Foundation influence legislative change or publishing our annual People, Purpose, Planet report to provide a roadmap for other businesses, our goal remains the same: to move the needle.
A long-term commitment
The King’s Award is a milestone, but our mission is ongoing. As a B Corp-certified agency with a global reach—from London to New York and Singapore—we remain dedicated to raising industry standards.
We are incredibly grateful to the clients who trust us with their stories and the team that brings their purpose to work every day. Together, we are proving that sustainable business isn’t just a “nice to have”—it’s the only way forward.
Now, it’s time to help more brands be seen, be heard, and—most importantly—be good.
Milk & Honey PR is a B Corp certified international communications agency network, with offices in London, New York, San Francisco, Munich and Singapore. Our B Corp reaccreditation reflects our ongoing commitment to meeting rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability.
