Impact.
Proven.
From grassroots charities to global companies, we make social impact measurement clear, credible, and impossible to dismiss.
The Challenge: Hidden Impact
You’re creating powerful social change — but who sees it? Caught between anecdotes and metrics overload, your true impact remains invisible to funders, boards, and even your team.
The frustrating reality:
- Data collection without insight
- Funders questioning your real value
- Impact stories that miss the mark
- Missed opportunities to amplify success
Social Value Lab bridges this gap — turning overlooked impact into undeniable proof through practical, rigorous methods.
"Social Value Lab cut through the complexity of our work in former mining communities. Their evaluation provided compelling evidence that secured our government funding and gave us clear direction. They truly understand our communities and present evidence that convinces."
Our Approach
We believe impact evaluation should illuminate, not complicate.
What sets us apart:
- We translate complexity into clarity
- We combine data with human stories
- We craft compelling evidence
- We build your team’s capabilities
We transform your impact story — measuring social impact to drive decisions, attract support, and accelerate positive change.

From Our Client Portfolio:
Success Story: Amazon UK
When Amazon needed proof of impact from their Multibank initiative — redistributing surplus products to vulnerable families — we delivered. Our Social Return on Investment analysis revealed £6 of social value created for every £1 invested.
This evidence helped Amazon scale from two to six locations, reaching thousands more families while reducing waste. Our ongoing evaluation continues to maximize their UK-wide impact.
"Social Value Lab is like an extension of our team — always proactive, insightful, and brilliantly autonomous in delivering analysis and reporting. We’re really grateful for the independent assessment of our work, and take their findings to heart."
