Assurance is more than just a rubber-stamping exercise. It is also a learning process designed to help you improve the way you measure impact.

During the process of Report Assurance your social value or SROI analysis will be independently checked by our qualified assessors. They will check that the report shows good understanding of social value principles and practice. For an SROI report this means that ‘Principle 3: Value what matter’ requires the use of financial proxies. However, any social value/impact report can be tested against The Principles of Social Value.

We know there are always different challenges come up when writing reports, therefore SVI is offering more technical support through this Assessor Drop-in session. We invited our assessors to chair the session and share their top tips for report writing.

In February, we have invited Yulia Romaschenko from Charitable Foundation for Philanthropy Development to speak in the first Assessor Drop-in.
