Through skills and development programmes, we support and invest in social leaders, enabling them to build the capabilities, confidence and resilience to transform their organisations, communities and the world around them.
Since 2010, we have supported over 4,000 individuals from nearly 3,000 social purpose organisations.

- Organisations: We recognise the pivotal role of organisations in driving impact, we offer tailored solutions that enhance leadership capabilities within organisations. By strengthening organisational leadership, we amplify their ability to create meaningful change.
- Communities: We acknowledge the local and grassroots level as a powerful source of change, we equip leaders working in a 'place' or within a 'practice' with the tools and networks to work together to amplify their voices, implement solutions, and create tangible impact within their communities.
