Workshops to help firms better communicate their impact

Derby Social Ventures is set to hold workshops which aim to help businesses better communicate the positive impact they make on society.

Next month, the organisation will start inviting entries to its Derby Impact Awards.

To help organisations hone their entries, Derby Social Ventures has organised two workshops.

Entitled ‘Tell Your Impact Story: Get Recognised, Find Funding and Grow’, they will identify the facts, evidence and stories that demonstrate social impact and bring them together into a compelling narrative.

Keith Jeffrey, from Derby Social Ventures, said: “Being able to tell your impact story isn’t just about winning an award.

“It helps you win customers, attract investment, secure funding and build partnerships.

The first workshop takes place on Friday 11 September. To register click here.

The second takes place on Thursday 1 October. To register click here.

Applications for the Derby Impact Awards 2026 open on Monday 7 September.
