We offer accessible, high quality, strategy development, transformation and business development consultancy support to help charities and social enterprises across the UK. We then re-invest the majority of our profits to help marginalised young people with care experience, through the delivery of innovative education and employability programmes. Our two key aims are: 1) to increase the aspirations and attainment of disengaged young people, by delivering exceptional educational engagement and employability programmes; and 2) to provide high quality and accessible strategy, business development and transformation consultancy services, to help charities, and social enterprises grow and develop capability; enabling them to deliver their social inclusion programmes to more people who benefit from them. In 2024/25, we focused our social activity on pro-bono consultancy work and delivering ongoing in-work support to two young people, to ensure their continued success in employment beyond Simpact. Education & Employability Programmes Through 2024-25, we focused our employability support on: - Mentoring 2 young people with care experience, working with them monthly whilst one was in work and part-time education & one was in full-time education. - We supported one candidate to set-up their own business, developing an employment support business. - We delivered 1-2-1 sessions with the candidates on: commercial strategy, go-to-market, business incorporation, workplace behaviours, and with a non-work focus on personal finances and budgeting. Helping charities grow. Our primary focus across both our divisions is exemplary customer service and offering a tangible return on investment; whether that be a financial or social return. We have secured over £40m contracts and grants for our charity clients in 2024/25 and during this period worked with 22 charities and social enterprises nationally. We have also worked with national charities to re-work the operating model of some of their core services, including with Age UK (national) and the Stroke Association. We also provided 8 days pro-bono support for charities across the period, equivalent to £5,200 if billed on a commercial basis. Our overall impact across our education and consultancy activity has been: - Secured over £40m of funding for charities and social enterprises. - Supported 2 young people with care experience to improve their employability skills, as described above.
