The Community Impact Partnership, made up of Peabody, L&Q, Clarion and Orbit housing associations, is committed to generating social impact and Social Value through their investments and has chosen to support the Social Value Exchange for this reason.
GRE Consulting, an independent socio-economic research and consultancy firm, was appointed to undertake an evaluation of the Social Value Exchange’s work to date.
