Delivering social value you can see
Mark Chadwick , Group Executive Director (Business Services)
As a mission-driven business social value is at the heart of Fusion21 and we’re passionate about generating social value you can see. But what does this mean?
Procuring with purpose
Through impactful procurement, we work with our approved supply chain and members to ensure that social value targets are set and delivered through every procurement project. This involves helping to design social value delivery plans that drive meaningful changes and make a visible difference in local communities.
The opportunities created range from apprenticeships and local job opportunities to supporting the development of green skills, community initiatives, volunteering, or targeted pre-employment activity.
Championing social value
As champions of social value, Fusion21 has delivered more than £200 million in social impact and created more than 13,550 employment outcomes.
We take our commitment to social impact seriously and go beyond the requirements of the Public Services (Social Value Act) 2012 to support organisations and contribute to changing society for the better.
Our work to date and beyond
Our social value team monitors and reports on all social value outcomes and I’m delighted to share that our 2023-2024 results speak for themselves, showing how impactful our social value delivery continues to be.
Through collaboration with our members and suppliers, together we have created and sustained hundreds of jobs, apprenticeships, training opportunities, and careers advice support. We continue to see the importance of volunteering and much-needed material and monetary donations supporting projects in the community.
Changing lives and delivering meaningful impact is a huge passion of mine and the wider Fusion21 team, and I’m so proud of everyone’s continued efforts to deliver social value you can see. We have big ambitions for the future and can’t wait to share them with you – watch this space!
