What We Do
Words from our clients...
The work TSIC did was invaluable. It gave Mada an independent profitability analysis as well as areas of focus. It provided the foundation upon which an informed decision could be made. Our experience with TSIC was very positive as I believe the work TSIC undertook was of high-quality and met Mada’s expectations. I will certainly recommend TSIC to others.Kent Nicholls
There are few organisations that have such a deep understanding of social impact measurement. Through our Good Kitchen programme, Bonnie and her team engagingly and meticulously guided five social businesses through how to measure the difference they were making and why it was important. With a heap of relevant case studies, well-prepared workshops and follow-on activities, it’s fair to say that it fundamentally changed how we thought about and conducted social impact measurement.Joseph Gridley
The work we have done with TSIC has had an enormously positive impact on our ability demonstrate our impact. The professional manner in which they took complicated processes and evidence capture, turning it into data that we could use to demonstrate to commissioners our statistically significant impact, has been a cornerstone of our marketing and given us as an organisation a more sophisticated and nuanced insight of our work. The process was smooth and one I am very keen to repeat.Simon Glenister
Through taking part in The Charities Intrapreneurship Programme, we have gained confidence around generating and putting forward ideas, an understanding of the wider market place, and an understanding of how to go about feasibility studies and client research. We also gained lots of great feedback and ideas.Samantha Dodd

Examples of collaboration:
We are actively working to improve diversity and inclusion among impact investors. As a firm that very much prides ourselves on embracing diversity in terms of age, race, ethnicity, class, religion, gender, sexuality or disability, we work to ensure that these systems of discrimination are not perpetuated among capital and wealth holders. The two initiatives we are currently convening are:
Diversity Forum:
Diversity Forum gathers over 30 social investment firms and 50 individuals across the social investment sector in the UK, to drive inclusive social investment – through the convening of Diversity Working Group, Diversity Champions, commissioning of research and knowledge sharing.
Women in Social Finance:
A network of 120 senior female professionals working in social finance, dedicated to increasing visibility of female leadership, providing peer support and training for career advancement, and influencing the agenda on gender lens investing.
