Testimonials
“We see Social Value as a major vehicle for change and improvement driven from the base up via our stakeholders and front-line staff. Training all our staff has already brought a clear focus on our core themes through value maps. This wouldn’t have been possible without the guidance and support of Mantell Gwynedd”
Paul Frost, The Outdoor Partnership Social Value Champion, and Member of the Board of Directors
"The Social Value Cymru team at Mantell Gwynedd supported staff in our organisation as well as those we work closely with when engaging volunteers in understanding how the questions posed to current and potentially new volunteers would enable us to discover what we are doing well and how we can improve on engagement strategies within communities surrounding our estate.
Social Value Cymru’s support has been critical to our work and their recommendations have enabled us to make realistic amendments as we review our Diversity & Inclusion Policy alongside our Volunteer Engagement Strategy for the next 3 years."
Kirsten Manley, Engagement and Communications Officer, The Woodland Trust
“This session has been invaluable in cascading my understanding of measuring per se”

“The evaluation carried out by Mantell Gwynedd has enabled us to provide evidence as to the social value and impact the Change Step project has on veterans, their families and the communities they live in. From a quality perspective it has also reassured us that the work we do has an impact not only from a financial perspective but also that it breeds confidence in our service provision and those who commission our service. As a third sector organisation, which is reliant on grant funding, this level of evaluation is essential for ongoing sustainability and developing new services. The customer care aspect demonstrated by Mantell Gwynedd was second to none and their grasp of our project from the outset was very impressive”
