Join us for an informative and practical session, designed to equip businesses to make a meaningful impact on our local community ahead of the updated requirement for social value in the Procurement Act later this year.

Learn how local sustainability and building services consultancy, SDS, delivered its award-winning social value programme for the UK’s first National Marine Park! Meet Shaun Hoppins and Kate Lowman from SDS as they share their approach to national industry recognition as it celebrates its 20th anniversary.

Using the key themes of the Plymouth Charter to structure their commitments at tender stage, find out how the SME delivered and monitored their social value pledges – and maximised impact for our community, environment and economy.

There will be an opportunity to network, talk to charities and social value experts, and discuss the practicalities of managing social value.

There are 30 places - spaces are free but limited.

This event is for you if you would like to:

• Improve your approach to social value in tendering
• Learn how you can support local charities with limited resources
• Connect with like-minded businesses
• Hear how others measure social value
