In Short

The Impact Card Creation Tool helps organisations create a concise, visual summary of their social value evidence, making it easy to communicate outcomes to funders, commissioners, and partners.

Articulating impact clearly is a common challenge in social value delivery. The issue is rarely a lack of activity. More often, it is about finding a proportionate way to describe change that is structured, clear, and useful to others.

Full reports and formal frameworks have an important role. At the same time, many situations call for a simpler way to explain intended or achieved impact, for example within a social media post, newsletter, or briefing note. Funders, partners, and boards often need a concise explanation of who is affected, what change is expected, and why it matters.

What is Impact Card Studio?

Impact Card Studio is a free tool that allows organisations to create short impact cards. Each card can be tailored to include the information most relevant to the context, such as:

  • Project background
  • Outcomes and beneficiaries supported
  • Social Return on Investment (SROI)
  • Total social value figures

The tool provides a clear, visual way to present information from your projects in the Social Value Engine.

Impact Card Studio is free to use and available here: https://impactcardstudio.com
