Social Value

Social Value is the benefit our customers and communities gain from contributions made by our contractors and suppliers. Social Value is very important to LiveWest and is a key part of our commitment to our communities. 

Contributions of goods and materials, time and labour, funding, and the delivery of services are made by our contractors and suppliers to add value and additional support to LiveWest and community partner activities or projects.

Partnership working is an important part of the way we work and successful projects can often include social value contributions alongside support from community groups, grant funding, LiveWest and customer volunteering.

How does Social Value benefit our customers and community?

We recognise our responsibility to improve and have a positive impact on the lives of our customers, our communities and our planet and are committed to delivering social value, good governance and environmental sustainability through our business.

We actively seek social value opportunities through our supply chain and make sure that we look for commitments that really matter to our customers and the communities in which they live. 

We understand that measuring social value can help us to demonstrate the true impact of the services we deliver and provide the best possible outcomes for our customers.

Our priorities for Social Value are:
