There has been healthy interest in the Corporate Covenant from large corporations to small businesses, and Scotland is no exception. To date, 12 organisations in Scotland have signed the Corporate Covenant, and many more have expressed an interest in doing so. In addition, many national organisations have signed up and would of course also have sites/branches in Scotland.
