The Big Four firms have all been awarded the Community Mark award by Business in the Community for their continued investment in the local community
Deloitte, PwC, Ernst & Young and KPMG were among 21 companies that received the accolade.
Stephen Howard, chief executive of Business in the Community, said: “It’s the highest achievement for companies that can demonstrate a long-term positive impact in their communities. It sets the bar high enough to give most business leaders vertigo.”
Other companies to achieve the Community Mark included; Barclays, HBOS, J Sainsbury, GlaxoSmithKline, M&S, Rangers Football Club, npower, Tesco, Zurich, BT and Blackburn Rovers Football Club.
The Community Mark was given to the winners at a reception at 10 Downing Street that was hosted by John Denham, Secretary of State for innovation, universities and skills.
