Community

We are proud to play our part in the local community.

We founded Bailey Cook in Bath in 2018 and we are very proud of our Somerset and West Country roots. We feel it is important for us to play an active part in our community, which is why we always use local suppliers wherever possible. We also like to work with other local professionals in business community. We are willing, if not always successful, participants in the Bath League de Petanque (managed by The Bath Grand Cru Petanque Club)!

Tied in with this is our commitment to sustainability. We are able to recommend a range of sustainable investment funds to our clients, and in turn those funds invest in companies whose products and services have a positive impact on society. For example, this could include a focus on renewable energy like wind farms or solar power. We therefore try to walk the talk, and as a business make a conscious effort to reduce waste, reuse and recycle wherever we can. We try to reduce our use of paper by printing as few documents as possible, in favour of using electronic versions of documents which we know many of our clients prefer anyway.

We also like to raise money for charity, and in December 2019 with the generous support of our clients at our new office open evening, we raised funds for Pancreatic Cancer Action. We review the charities we support from time to time. In May 2020, during the first Covid-19 lockdown, we raised money for the Bowel & Cancer Research charity by each walking, running or cycling 2.6 miles each day. We have also raised money, through various activities and the generous support of our clients, for local childcare charity First Steps Bath and the national Centrepoint charity which aims to end youth homelessness.
