About this Event
Buses are critical social infrastructure, connecting people to essential support networks, jobs, opportunities, healthcare, and more, all whilst bringing added value to groups of protected characteristics, who represent a significant portion of bus user. In recognition of the role that buses play for the delivery of Social Value, the Department for Transport commissioned Arup to develop a ‘Social Value Toolkit’ to support the delivery of the Bus Service Improvements Programme (BSIP). This document builds on the extensive work conducted by various organisations as well as on evolving policy and research, to outline the approach to Social Value for the programme as well as mechanisms for delivery.
Join us in-person for the launch of the Toolkit and to hear from those delivering Social Value through their work in the sector.
In person event:
In addition to the presentations, there will be interactive spaces where attendees will be able to network and discuss best practices. This is a unique opportunity to deepen your understanding of Social Value and explore innovative strategies to enhance its impact through bus services. We encourage you to come prepared with questions and ideas to contribute to this important conversation.
Online event:
Join us online, if you are unable to attend the in-person event. You will have a virtual front row view of the presentations and speakers. Register to receive the joining link.
