“We’re extremely passionate about business with purpose. From our start, we’re been driven by a determination to help charities and businesses use social media and digital to drive positive and tangible social impact. The Brewery has amazing credentials in this space, and we’re truly excited about joining the group, combining our expertise, and working closely together on a range of important social and environmental projects.”
