Social Return on Investment (SROI) Briefing

How and when SROI can benefit your impact

For those seeking to improve their organisation’s social, economic or environmental impact.

This briefing on the SROI methodology draws on a wealth of examples to illustrate how the methodology has brought benefits to organisations across sectors and countries. It also considers the various debates on where and when it is best used in comparison to other methodologies.

“Very helpful, interactive approach, great group size and knowledgeable presenter. Thank you!” 
Lawrence Miller, Programme Director for Social Change, Barnwood Trust

“Thank you for your thought provoking and informative whistle stop tour of SROI…extremely interesting and useful.”
Louise Richards, Community Participation Manager, Literature Wales

The briefing puts SROI in context by explaining how and why it was developed as a methodology. It explains the principles of SROI and the processes in conducting an SROI, looking at each stage in detail with discussion around an example model.  And there is plenty of opportunity to discuss your projects and challenges.

Topics covered include:

  • Theory of Change
  • Measuring social impact
  • Valuing social impact
  • Modelling return on investment

By the end of the course, you will have a clear understanding of:

  • Where the methodology might be best applied within your organisation.

NEF Consulting briefings each provide an overview of a specific methodology or way of working, its benefits and how you might use it in your improvement strategy. As such, they are ideal for senior decision makers who would like to know more before deciding on the next step, whether training or consultancy.

The briefings are delivered by experts in the methodologies and we can tailor them to ensure examples and other content is appropriate to your needs. But all are highly interactive with question and answer sessions and discussions.
