Corporate governance is important in delivering our long-term success and TWI follows the UK Corporate Governance Code as it seeks to improve transparency, accountability and promote the values of the business as a whole.
Representation from TWI, Industrial and Professional Members enables the organisation to set and deliver the strategic aims of the business in line with the company mission.
For TWI, corporate governance also involves matters such as commitment to corporate and social responsibility, minimising impact on the environment, and sustainable procurement. These factors need to be balanced with effective leadership and accountability to maintain confidence while pushing a continued improvement in standards, decision-making and policy.
An important aspect of our day-to-day activities, it has been shown that companies who are well governed also perform better commercially.
"On behalf of TWI Council, I would like to extend my sincere appreciation to all of those of you who gave your time, insight, and thoughtful contributions to our recent governance review, conducted with the support of Mills and Reeve.
Your perspectives – whether provided through interviews, written submissions, workshops, or consultation meetings have been invaluable in helping us build a clearer understanding of how TWI can strengthen its governance arrangements for the future.
This review was an important opportunity for us to reflect on our current structures , decision -making processes, and long-term strategic needs.
The breadth and quality of the feedback received demonstrated both the depth of expertise across our community and the commitment shared by our stakeholders to ensuring that TWI remains resilient, forward looking, and well-positioned to fulfil its mission.
Council has translated your insights into a set of short-term actionable steps that supports transparency, accountability, and effective leadership across the organisation.
We will continue to develop the governance strategy in step with the strategic direction of the organisation.
Once again thank you for your contribution, engagement, and continued support. Your participation has played a crucial role in shaping the next chapter of TWI’s governance and helping us build a robust foundation for the years ahead.
With appreciation Claire Kimpton – TWI Chair of Council"
