VINCI Facilities develops social value beyond the legal requirements, delivering longlasting added value in economic, social and environmental areas by listening to our stakeholders needs.
Social value connects communities with the facilities they live and work, improving social cohesion and reducing inequalities and friction between all stakeholders.
By engaging key stakeholders early, we successfully mitigate concerns and maximise opportunities to generate social value collaboratively with the whole value chain.
Our industry-leading Social Value Framework, compatible with PPN 06/20, collects information across our operations, allowing us to share best practice and robustly report using a range of financial proxies most suitable to our activities. This is continually updated and managed by our expert social sustainability manager, who is an accredited practitioner with Social Value International.
Our impact on communities is as relevant on one site as it is nationally. We remain sensitive to local needs by appointing regional social value champions, whilst supporting charities and community organisations with direct grant funding through the VINCI UK Foundation.
Reading From The Start, our bespoke project developed with our customer Peabody Housing Association and local charities, encourages children from deprived areas to improve their literacy and has continued for 6 years, demonstrating the longevity of our social value delivery.
