Social Value Experience
With decades of experience in social value, regeneration, and business strategy, The Value Practice works alongside in-house teams to embed practical, measurable impact. Our background in local economy, skills, and employment programmes enables us to deliver credible social value strategies, impact measurement, and reporting for developers and SMEs—helping organisations meet ESG, sustainability, and procurement requirements.
As part of a strong network of social value practitioners, we combine deep expertise with real-world collaboration—turning frameworks into action, policy into practice, and good intentions into evidence-based social value reporting that builds trust, demonstrates value, and supports long-term growth.
What Do I Mean by Real-World Business Social Value?
It’s not complicated – it’s the everyday work of well-run businesses. Investing in staff training and certificates, following strong HR and management practices, paying suppliers on time, achieving industry accreditations, supporting local schools and charities, hosting young people for work experience, hiring apprentices, or improving your local environment — these are all acts of social value.
Many business leaders I meet see the term social value and assume it must mean something extra or complex. In reality, social value is often already embedded in how you operate as a good employer, partner, and neighbour. The difference lies in recognising it — and reporting it.
Capturing this activity in a Social Value Policy and Impact Report turns everyday good practice into a measurable strength. It gives you clear evidence for supply chain bids, a stronger story to promote your company, and reasons for the best new colleagues to join your team.
A short Social Value Sprint can help you unlock much more — transforming what you already do into a competitive advantage for your business.
Independent consultancy specialising in social value strategy, reporting and ESG alignment across business, regeneration and skills.
