What is Social Value?

Social value is all about the positive impact a business can have on the communities and the world around us. It’s not just about making a profit; it’s about making life better for everyone. Think of it as the ripple effect your business creates—how your actions, big or small, contribute to social, environmental, and economic well-being.

Why Social Value Matters

In today’s world, people expect more from businesses. They want to know that companies are doing their part to make the world a better place.

  • Building Trust: When you show that you care about more than just profits, people notice. Customers, partners, and communities are more likely to trust and support you.
  • Fostering Innovation: Tackling social and environmental challenges can lead to creative solutions and new opportunities.
  • Attracting Talent: Talented people want to work for companies that stand for something meaningful. By focusing on social value, you can attract and retain passionate employees.
  • Strengthening Community Bonds: Giving back and engaging with the community helps build strong, lasting relationships.

Working with our communities

As part of Commercial Service Group we are big on social value and helping to make our communities, and let’s dream big here, the world a better place.

Being part of CSG, who is wholly-owned by Kent County Council, our profits go back into helping public services within the county.

Working alongside our sister company LASER, who provide energy procurement for the public sector, we are focused on bringing social value into everything we do, whether it’s how we run our business or helping by volunteering our time to local community projects.

 

 

Together, we can create a brighter, more sustainable future for everyone.

Creating social value isn’t just the right thing to do—it’s what makes us who we are. We’re committed to doing good and making a positive difference in the world.
