Supported Sectors

We support organisations at every stage of their social value journey.

​

From solopreneurs and SMEs looking to strengthen bids, to larger organisations delivering measurable social value through contracts, our approach is practical, flexible, and tailored to what actually works.

​

We also work with organisations including the Local Government Association and HM Prison and Probation Service, alongside charities, community groups, and social enterprises (VCSE). Our work spans opportunities across environment, education and skills, health and social care, employment, and local communities.

​

We bring particular expertise in disability, age friendly practice, and supporting the Armed Forces community.

The Armed Forces community includes everyone whose lives are shaped by military service, whether past or present.

 

It covers:

  • Serving personnel in the Royal Navy, British Army, and Royal Air Force, including regulars and reservists.

  • Veterans of all ages, from those recently leaving service to those who served many decades ago.

  • Families and dependants, such as spouses, partners, children, and those who care for serving members or veterans.

  • Bereaved families who have lost a loved one through service.

  • Service leavers and those transitioning to civilian life, who may still rely on support networks linked to the Armed Forces.
