Agenda

PURPOSE

Social value has matured. It has more rigour, scrutiny, methodologies and tools for calculation than ever... so why does it still feel like something of a 'wild west', with double counting rife and communities not receiving the benefits they were promised?

In this half day National Summit, we'll share the National Social Value Quality Framework (NSVQF) - the UK's first best practice standards for whole-of-lifecycle social value - and cover the themes that emerged during the public consultation.

We'll be joined by leading lights in social value from all sectors for case studies of what great practice looks like - whether you're at a foundational level, making progress, leading or innovating.

A 'must attend' for anyone responsible for specifying, driving, delivering or evaluating social value, and with an ambition to see truly meaningful outcomes for people and communities.
