SIAA is delighted to host a networking and discussion event on the social impact analysis for the voluntary and community sector, in partnership with the London Voluntary Service Council (LVSC).

With the Social Value Act coming into law in the UK, demonstrating value is now a key issue for both government and voluntary organisations. Yet many organisations lack the means and the knowledge to either assess their impact or put this evidence to use.

SIAA and LVSC’s event will explore the practical challenges that voluntary organisations – particularly smaller ones - face in assessing their social impact. We also want to ask what opportunities social impact assessment can open up for organisations that engage with the process, and to what ends the evidence has been used so far.

The event will consist of a panel with Emma Ferris, Head of Impact Evaluation at the Outward Bound Trust; Tris Lumley, Head of Development at New Philanthropy Capital; Dan Hopewell, Director of Services at Bromley by Bow Centre; and Alison Blackwood, Head of Policy at LVSC, who will chair the conversation. A half hour Q&A will follow. The event will conclude with networking drinks.

The event will take place in the evening of Wednesday 16 May at the CCLA offices in Cheapside, central London.   Please RSVP to Michelle Curtis at LVSC on michelle@lvsc.org.uk /020 7832 5824  if you would like to attend this event.
