At nGAGE Talent, social value isn’t a box to tick. It’s woven into the fabric of our business. We believe in making a difference within our business and in the wider community in which we operate. Beyond our organisation, we are committed to breaking barriers and creating opportunities for under-represented groups. Our broader societal impact showcases our dedication to improving communities and supporting individuals to succeed.
Our Social Value Report 2023-24 illustrates our continued efforts to create opportunities and uplift the communities in which we operate.
Overcoming employment barriers
We’re focused on helping people overcome barriers to employment. Our data shows that we created 7.88 full-time equivalent jobs for disadvantaged individuals, including those with disabilities and rehabilitating ex-offenders.
Local jobs, local impact
Working close to home is increasingly important to people, as it helps improve work-life balance and reduces commuting time. One of our biggest achievements has been boosting local employment. Our Social Value Report reveals that 570 employees work within 20 miles of our key office locations, contributing over £22.5 million in local economic value. This strengthens communities and reduces carbon emissions from long commutes.
Giving back to the community: our employees making a difference
At nGAGE, social value isn’t only about business. It’s about people. Many of our employees dedicate their time to community-focused initiatives, from career mentoring to hands-on volunteering. In 2023-24, our team contributed 515 hours to local community projects, adding £8.7k in social value. We’ve dedicated significant time to career mentoring and skills coaching. Our employees have delivered 39 career support sessions at prisons and employment charities. By offering training and career support, we’re not only filling positions. We’re changing lives.
Whether supporting young people, helping job seekers, or giving back through charitable work, our employees embody the spirit of social responsibility. Our Social Value Report goes beyond the numbers; it’s about people, communities, and lasting change.
A look ahead: shaping the future through social value
Our Social Value Report 2023-24 is not only a reflection of what we’ve accomplished; it’s a blueprint for the future, guiding us towards continued growth, societal impact, and positive change. Want to learn more about how we’re making a difference? Read the full report here.
