Let’s Make aDifference Together.
Partnering with KCM is not a vague act of goodwill. It is a structured, documented, publicly recognised community investment that delivers real outcomes for schools, real value for your business, and real change in communities.
Enquire NowThis Is NotA Charity Ask.
KCM is not asking your organisation to make a vague donation. It is offering a structured partnership product that funds free school resources and gives your business documented, evidenced, procurement-ready social value. Here is the difference.
Social Value IsNow the Law.
If your business bids for public sector contracts, social value is no longer optional. Under the Public Services (Social Value) Act 2012 and the strengthened Procurement Policy Note 06/20, contracting authorities must consider social value in all major procurement decisions. KCM partnership gives you exactly what you need.
What the Law Requires
Public bodies must consider social value at the procurement stage, not as an afterthought. Businesses bidding for contracts worth over £10,000 with central government, and many local authority contracts, are now scored on their demonstrable community contribution. Vague CSR statements are no longer enough.
What KCM Gives You
A KCM partnership delivers specific, place-based, evidenced social value. A formal letter from a registered CIC. Named schools in named locations. Documented outcomes. Real resources in real classrooms. This is exactly the kind of evidence procurement teams are looking for – and cannot ignore.
Why Knife Crime Specifically
Community safety is a priority social value theme across local and central government. Knife crime is a national priority. Sponsoring KCM directly addresses a documented public need, connects your business to a measurable outcome, and demonstrates genuine community investment rather than box-ticking.
KCM currently works with Keepmoat, Willmott Dixon, Morgan Sindall, Wates, Henry Boot and Bowmer & Kirkland – among others – as documented social value partners. These firms use KCM sponsorship as named, evidenced community investment in their public sector tender submissions.
