PricewaterhouseCoopers’ The Building Public Trust Award for Impact in Social Enterprise, in collaboration with the School for Social Entrepreneurs, recognises excellence in social enterprises demonstrating a positive social or environmental impact. The winner will receive a £5,000 prize and two runners up will each receive a £2,500 award from the PwC Social Entrepreneurs Club, to help them continue to grow their impact.
Full details:
The BPTA Impact in Social Enterprise Award is open to all UK based social enterprises. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, PwC has supported social entrepreneurs with the impacts on them and their businesses, helping to give our PwC Social Entrepreneurs Club members clarity, control and confidence. They know how resilient social enterprises are. Despite the many challenges over the last two years, this resilience was very evident in the 2021 Impact in Social Enterprise award submissions. So many showed an impressive ability to swiftly adjust their business models to digital delivery and have generated high returns in the effort to ‘build back better’. They’ve often been at the centre of the pandemic response, working with those most affected in our communities.
The winner of the BPTA Impact in Social Enterprise Award 2021 is Noise Solution. David Adair, Head of Community Engagement at PwC added, ‘Our PwC Building Public Trust Social Enterprise Award 2021 shines a light on a social enterprise that really punches above its weight, demonstrating an impact on a very relevant issue post COVID. Noise Solution engage young people with mental health issues using technology in an imaginative and creative way, building their confidence and boosting their prospects and life chances. I look forward to watching them grow and expand over the coming year’.
