Our offer

We are experts in the ways that the built environment can positively impact people and communities. But that impact is often ignored or misunderstood.

We have a long heritage of shedding light on the unknown. By offering the perfect blend of academic rigour and insider industry experience, we can provide a complete picture of the social value potential of your project or programme, and recommend the kind of changes that make a massive difference to everyone affected by it.

Our insights can help developers and planners create buildings and spaces that don’t just influence lives but improve them.

The ability to demonstrate that you can generate societal and environmental value is a must.

We can help make sure that tenders you prepare, or proposals you submit are watertight by providing financial values for impacts, and a clear workable plan that will deliver real change over time.
By placing a financial value on social elements, we can show you ways in which you can improve your financial returns whilst simultaneously improving community relations and creating more sustainable places for the future.
We know societal value like the back of our hands. This makes us perfectly placed to advise you from design to post occupation.

We ensure that every part of the societal agenda is addressed and clearly tied into your wider organisational aims and national goals.
We can ensure your expectations for social change are built into all of the projects you are responsible for delivering by embedding this into organisational policy and your supply chains.
We can liaise with communities at any stage in a development, from inception to completion and occupation.

We carry out research to better understand what local communities need and evaluate the real qualitative and quantitative societal impact over time.

Thoughts

Social Value Can Give Fuel for Thought Over Winter Allowances

In 2010, when the Conservative government implemented austerity measures in the aftermath of the financial crisis, many economists warned that focusing solely on spending cuts without contemplating their long-term social impact was ill-considered. Fourteen years later, the UK faces similar issues under a Labour government. The dire economic legacy inherited by the current government necessitates fiscal responsibility, yet lessons from the past suggest that cuts in essential services, such as the Winter Fuel Allowance, could lead to greater social and economic costs in the future.

RealWorth's James McGowan and Erik Bichard recently hosted a social value walking tour of Liverpool's northern docklands area. Joined by Officers from Liverpool City Council and Make CIC, we discussed how regeneration can create social value for existing and future residents.
