Empowering people and making a difference.
Our commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
As a firm we share a collective responsibility to the wider community.
Our roots are in the entertainment and media industry, and we take great pride in supporting a number of causes within those communities and elsewhere, whether through practical support or financial sponsorship.
We foster a diverse, inclusive work environment - which enables us to provide clients with innovative thinking of teams rich in talent, experiences, and creativity; and we actively encourage our colleagues to get involved, however they can, wherever possible.
CSR is key to our firm’s core values. Our people actively invest in the communities in which we live and work, driving forward real change and lasting impact.
We made a commitment to working hard and ensuring that what we do makes a difference and achieves impact in the communities throughout our network.
Everyone in the firm plays a part in making our communities better by donating their time and/or talents where they can.
Diversity, Equality & Inclusion is fundamental to a culture where we are absolutely committed to encouraging a climate of partnership, mutual support, and teamwork in every activity undertaken by and within the firm.
We recognise that diverse perspectives reap better results and more innovative outcomes for our clients, and a better work environment for our people.
Alongside practical help, we provide financial support to a variety of charities, and have set up a payroll giving scheme, facilitating direct donations from our colleagues’ salary to charities of their choice.
Charity of the Year 2025
As voted by the firm, we are supporting Honeypot Children’s Charity through various fundraising initiatives and volunteering during 2025.
Honeypot Children’s Charity works to enhance the lives of young carers aged 5-12 years by providing respite breaks and a holistic range of services since 1996. Honeypot seeks to provide a safe, nurturing environment for young carers, where children at risk can develop their full potential.
Legal Helpline
Simkins’ Film & TV team run a quarterly Legal Helpline for Sara Putt Associates, the leading UK independent agency representing behind the camera technical and production talent. The Helpline provides free legal advice and support to their Foundation’s upcoming producers, writers and directors on the legal and related issues involved in entering the film and television industry.
ReachOut Partnership
We partner with ReachOut, a mentoring charity that helps young people from disadvantaged backgrounds improve their career prospects. We provide mentoring, an Insight Day and opportunities for candidates to attend our placement week to gain invaluable work experience.
We are proud to support our key partnerships and charities.
I cannot emphasise how helpful it was for my work experience placement.
The entire week was very useful, especially allowing us to shadow lawyers throughout the week because I was able to learn a lot from their respective fields of expertise.
Partnering with Simkins represents a powerful alliance for Honeypot. Their commitment to social responsibility, combined with their reach and influence, will amplify our ability to provide essential respite breaks for young carers. We are deeply grateful for Simkins' dedication to making a tangible difference.
