Ep. 5 - Understanding the economic benefit of Social Value, Guy Battle

Chief executive of Social Value Portal, Guy Battle joins us in the studio for the fifth PSE podcast, giving us insight into the specific benefits that come from embedding social value into council commissioning and procurement.

With hosts Emily Rodgers and Matt Roberts, the conversation covers everything from the social, economic and environmental wellbeing of communities and the key councils working to improve their region.

Main topics include the function of the Social Value Portal, how it can result in financial gain for the area and demystifying the process of ‘accounting for’ social value.

Guy talks at length about the specific weightings of social value and how councils can generate significant financial benefits by unlocking the potential of their region.

 
Whether you are part of the public or private sector, this podcast is unmissable for developing the potential of your services and giving back to the communities.

Guy will be joining us at the EvoNorth event in Manchester on the 4th and 5th March, which will see the collaborating and networking of leaders from across the country join forces to transform the North and the services it offers.
