Delivering Social Value That Truly Matters

Public sector organisations are under increasing pressure to deliver social value alongside essential services. Whether through procurement, commissioning, or community initiatives, decision-makers are expected to show clear, measurable benefits for society.

Partnering with us enables councils, NHS trusts, housing associations, and other public bodies to embed social value at the heart of their work, reducing loneliness, improving wellbeing, and strengthening communities through structured volunteering programmes.

Why Social Value Matters

Policy Alignment

The UK Government’s Social Value Model (PPN 06/20) requires public sector organisations and suppliers to evidence social impact.

Community Resilience

Tackling loneliness improves mental health, reduces pressure on public services, and fosters stronger neighbourhoods.

Efficient Use of Resources

By leveraging volunteering, we extend the reach of public services without duplicating or replacing professional roles.

Measurable Outcomes

Social value reporting demonstrates accountability to funders, regulators, and communities.
