LBG : Corporate Citizenship : Community Partners

Community Partners

LBG for Community Partners has been developed to help community organisations understand the LBG model and why companies use it.

By attending a workshop, community organisations will gain a greater understanding of the business need to monitor, measure and report back more fully on leverage, other outputs and impacts.

A key aim of the workshops is to improve the dialogue between LBG corporate members and community partners.

‘The LBG for Community Partners workshop was really valuable. To have the LBG model explained by someone independent added real weight and credibility. A number of the community partners really grasped the opportunity to understand the model. It was great that they could value, discuss and question how the model works.’ Rose Gardner, Head of Community Investment, npower

There are two types of workshop, please click on the links below for more information on each type.
