Business in the Community (BITC) is delighted to release our inaugural Impact Report for 2023-2024, Leading with Purpose. This report shares how we, together with our members and partners, are making an impact across the UK.

Impact report highlights

This year’s Impact Report highlights our social impact vision:

First, we want every young person and jobseeker to feel supported and have clear pathways into work. The future depends on providing people with the opportunities they need to thrive, and this year we’ve helped thousands of people facing significant barriers into work.

Second, we want every employer to invest in the skills necessary for today and tomorrow, creating workplaces where everyone can grow and reach their full potential, regardless of their background. From our Race at Work Charter with over 1,000 businesses signatories, to our emerging work on AI, we continue to bring businesses together to champion and challenge for greater impact.

Finally, we are committed to fostering a sense of pride and hope in every community, with support to build and deliver a strong, collective vision of a fairer and greener tomorrow. We are currently driving real change on the ground in 16 places, with our ambition to transform 50 places by 2032.
