BITC Award success 2011

Impact have won two Big Ticks in the BITC Awards for Excellence 2011. We have been recognised in the Small Company of the Year category and also won a new award for our Work Inspiration programme.

Impact subscribed to BITC’s Work Inspiration initiative in 2010. This project is a national employer-led campaign that aims to make work experience more meaningful, relevant and inspiring for young people. Impact have radically changed our approach to make the week more enjoyable and worthwhile for the students and for our people. We are delighted the programme has been a success and the new award is just the icing on the cake! View a short film about our programme on YouTube.

Stephen Howard, Chief Executive, Business in the Community said: ‘I congratulate Impact International on achieving two Big Ticks. It is a challenging time for business, but this is a sign that companies are not losing their focus and are transforming their businesses to make a positive impact on people and society and are prepared to lead by example.
