Business in the Community provides bespoke advisory services on responsible business practices.
We provide businesses with tailored support on their Responsible Business Strategy, we offer training and workshops, and we help businesses to understand their most material responsible business topics.
Depending on the level of intervention required, we can develop training sessions, workshops, eLearning modules, toolkits, or webinars for your business, based around the service areas noted below.
We can support you across a range of Advisory Service areas or themes, including:
Social Value Support
Our range of programmes and initiatives can help your organisation to meet government and contractual Social Value requirements. We will help you to achieve your Social Value requirements by mapping out your commitments in alignment with our programmes and offers, and delivering them in collaboration with you.

Our two-hour Introduction to Biodiversity training course has been designed to provide baseline knowledge for professionals working across all sectors and departments, and is suitable for beginners.
