Impact

Impact reported the way we would want it audited.

Measured against HACT social value banks and the National TOMs framework, with method, indicators and limitations published before any result is claimed.

01

Structured consultation

Every engagement opens with a written assessment before advice is given

02

Practical frameworks

Formation, governance and delivery models designed to be used, not filed

03

Measurement by design

Outcome data specified before delivery begins, aligned to HACT and National TOMs

04

Partnership approach

We work alongside boards and teams so capability stays with the organisation

Measurement model

Four questions every engagement has to answer

We follow the Impact Management Project's dimensions rather than a proprietary alternative, so a funder or auditor can reconstruct our reasoning.

Dimension 01

What

The outcome we are trying to change, named before delivery begins

Dimension 02

Who

The population affected, and how they are represented in governance

Dimension 03

How much

Scale, depth and duration of the change, with the proxy disclosed

Dimension 04

Contribution

What we can attribute, and what we can only associate

Outcome areas

Where we will report change

Four outcome areas with named indicators, valued using published proxies net of deadweight and displacement adjustments.

01

Employment & skills

Training, work placements and progression into employment

02

Health & wellbeing

Isolation reduction, mental health support and activity programmes

03

Community capacity

Volunteer hours, group formation and governance capability

04

Youth provision

Out-of-school activity, mentoring and safe spaces

Engagement models

What the work looks like

Communities

Place partnership design

Designed for: Grassroots groups, housing providers and local authorities

We convene fragmented community provision into an accountable partnership: terms of reference, decision rights, a common data set and a costed delivery plan the partners can take to funders together.

Shared governance, one outcomes framework, a single evidence base.

Charities & CICs

Formation and first-year compliance

Designed for: Volunteer groups and new social organisations

Structure selection, tailored articles, the CIC36 community interest statement and an operational setup pack — turning informal delivery into an organisation that can hold contracts and funding.

Incorporation, asset lock, board induction and a compliance calendar.

Enterprises & Partners

Social value programme design

Designed for: Contractors, employers and corporate partners

We design corporate social value that communities recognise and procurement teams can defend: real delivery partners, named indicators, and quarterly reporting built into existing governance.

A TOMs-aligned strategy with auditable measurement and board reporting.

Our commitments

What we hold ourselves to

Supporting organisations through structured development

Advice follows a written consultation. We set out what is actually wrong, what it will cost to fix and what can safely be left alone.

Building stronger communities through collaboration

We work alongside boards, staff and residents rather than around them, so capability remains with the organisation after the engagement closes.

Providing practical frameworks for sustainable growth

Every deliverable is a working document — governance, measurement and delivery frameworks designed to be used by the people who inherit them.

Reporting

Planned reporting cycle

As a newly established CIC we publish our method and indicators first. Reports follow the delivery they describe, including engagements that do not achieve their aims.

Impact Plan 2026–2029

Available now · method, indicators and reporting commitments

Interim Report 2026

Planned · first six months of delivery

Annual Impact Report 2027

Planned · full-year account with methodology appendix

Next step

Measure what your organisation delivers

We build outcome frameworks that produce reportable data from the first day of delivery.
