Social Value Report 2023
We take a targeted approach to Social Value, tailoring our efforts to the specific needs of stakeholders, local communities, and resident businesses at each site. For MAKE IT Barking, we co-designed a Social Value SLA with the London Borough of Barking & Dagenham, aligning with local economic priorities while reflecting our values in creativity, arts, wellness, and sustainability. We report annually on outcomes including sector support, equality, affordability, education and wellbeing, benefiting both residents and the wider community. Our diverse programming includes workshops, networking, arts and culture events, wellness activities, and business support, delivered in-house and via professional partnerships. To support SMEs needing extra help, we run the ‘Future Enterprise’ scheme, offering subsidized workspace, unlimited facility access, and educational opportunities in exchange for community-focused Social Value contributions like apprenticeships and peer to peer support. To date, these Social Value initiatives have been self-funded. In April 2025, we began establishing a registered charity to expand our capacity, access funding, and enhance these programmes further. Check out the full report below.

Who Are MAKE IT London?

MAKE IT London are a small but mighty team of individuals driven by the magic that happens when people share space. We reimagine environments with a mission to create affordable spaces that encourage ideas. We provide a 360-degree service from design and refurbishment of assets through to enterprise sourcing, community outreach, event curation and operation. We work alongside local authorities, landlords and communities, listening to local aspirations for increased socio-economic value. We're not a social enterprise, charity or community interest company...we just think it's really cool when inclusivity, accessibility and creativity come together.

How Can I Get Involved?

Rent a workspace or desk with us, shoot a music video, record a podcast, find your zen in a yoga class, attend an event, host an event, sip a coffee or sink a double at the bar...everything and everyones welcome!

If you're a landlord, local authority or developer and are looking for a new opportunity, we're always on the look out for new projects. Maybe you've got a building, plot of land or development opportunity which you would like us to bring to life we’d love to hear from you.
