Dr Simon Opher MP visited Stroud Brewery with representatives from the Better Business Act campaign to hear how local B Corp businesses exemplify the economic and social benefits of purpose-driven enterprise and support the route to better business.

Alongside Stroud Brewery, Dr Opher met with local B Corps — Glos B-Initiative, Hobbs House Bakery, Austin Design Works, and QuoLux — who are all members of the Better Business Act coalition.

Together, they are urgently calling on the Government to embrace corporate governance reform in the UK, in line with the coalition's mission to ensure every business can play a part in building a more sustainable economy and a brighter future.

The visit highlights the growing momentum behind the Better Business Act campaign, which recently announced that its coalition has grown tenfold since 2021 and now includes over 3,000 businesses in more than 15 sectors, including technology, finance, insurance, and science.
