The Social Business Dilemma: Compliance or Commitment?

Join Heidi Dawson for a thought-provoking session exploring the role of social value in modern business – and the difference between doing good and just looking good.

This interactive session will examine how organisations can deliver genuine social impact – not as a tick-box exercise, but as part of a responsible, values-led way of working. We’ll explore the real meaning of corporate social responsibility and how businesses of all shapes and sizes can support their communities in ways that are authentic, practical and sustainable.

Expect straight-talking insights, real-world examples, and a discussion on how to create outcomes that benefit both business and society – all while keeping the Lincolnshire £ in Lincolnshire.
