At Hillier Hopkins we take pride in doing the right thing. Whether it’s the friendly expertise we provide to our clients or the choice of a renewable energy provider to power our office, we want to make a positive difference. That’s why as a firm we are committed to minimising our environmental footprint wherever possible across all three of our office locations. Our environmental goals are designed to help us minimise waste, procure more sustainably and build a strong environmental culture that drives us to continue to improve. Read more
