About NeuroDiverse Community.
Our work is rooted in lived experience and focuses on prevention, early support, inclusion and empowerment. We provide accessible, neuro-affirming community activities, SEND guidance, advocacy, wellbeing support, youth programmes, life-skills development, volunteering and opportunities for people to build confidence and meaningful connections. This helps reduce isolation, improve wellbeing and enable people to participate more fully in their families, education, employment and communities.
We create opportunities for children and young people to develop communication, independence, teamwork, leadership and social skills. Through YouthAbility Young Leaders and volunteering, participants can progress from beneficiaries to active contributors within their communities.
We also create social value through our support for parent carers and families. By providing safe spaces, practical advice, peer support and signposting, we help reduce the pressure on families and enable carers to feel more connected, informed and confident. Our Armed Forces work provides additional support to families who may experience isolation, mobility, financial pressures or challenges accessing appropriate services.
Our environmental and community projects, including Eco Forces, allotment projects and nature-based activities, connect inclusion with environmental responsibility, wellbeing and community participation.
We work collaboratively with schools, local authorities, NHS and healthcare providers, Armed Forces organisations, charities, businesses and other community groups, helping strengthen local support networks and improve understanding of neurodiversity.
Our social value is therefore not simply the number of sessions we deliver. It is the longer-term impact: people feeling less isolated, families better equipped to advocate for themselves, young people developing confidence and skills, volunteers gaining experience, and communities becoming more inclusive and connected.
Every activity is designed to create lasting community benefit, ensuring that people who are often excluded are not only supported, but empowered to participate, contribute and lead.
The Network.
The transformacy Social Value Network is a growing community of organisations — social enterprises, charities, training providers, community groups and purpose-led businesses — each delivering genuine social value in their field and their region.
Think of it as a trusted pool of partners. When organisations make social value commitments — through a Public Sector tender, a Section 106 agreement, or their own strategy — they need credible partners to help deliver them on the ground. The network exists to connect that need with the organisations best placed to meet it.
Every member is chosen for the quality and authenticity of the social value they create, so the network stays something people can genuinely rely on — a shortcut to trusted, capable partners rather than an open directory. Each member has a profile setting out what they do, who they serve and where they operate, and displays the transformacy Social Value Network member badge as a mark of their place in the community.

About social value
What is social value?
Social value is the positive social, economic and environmental impact an organisation creates for the communities it serves, beyond the direct product or service it provides. Examples include creating local jobs, offering skills and training, supporting disadvantaged groups, spending with local suppliers and reducing environmental harm.
Why does social value matter in public sector tenders?
Under UK procurement rules, contracting authorities must consider social value when awarding contracts, applying a minimum weighting — typically 10-20% — to social value in their evaluation. This means the social value a supplier offers can directly influence whether they win public sector work.
What is the Procurement Act 2023?
The Procurement Act 2023, which came into force in February 2025, reforms how public sector contracts are procured in the UK. It reinforces the role of social value in procurement, making it increasingly important for suppliers to demonstrate and deliver measurable social impact.
What is the National TOMs framework?
TOMs — Themes, Outcomes and Measures — is a widely used framework for measuring and reporting social value in a consistent, comparable way. It helps organisations place a credible value on the social impact they create and evidence it to buyers and commissioners.
How is social value delivered in practice?
Social value commitments are delivered through practical activities such as employing local people, offering apprenticeships and work experience, running community projects, supporting charities and cutting carbon. Many organisations draw on delivery partners with local reach or specialist expertise to help meet these commitments.
