New Philanthropy Capital's landmark Impact UK report reveals the UK's impact economy contributes £428 billion—15% of GDP. For the first time, it maps charities, social enterprises, impact investors, and purpose-driven businesses as a unified system. This evidence arrives as government signals new willingness to partner with the sector to tackle the UK's most pressing challenges.

Dominic Llewellyn reflects on the Impact Economy Policy Labs—a co-design approach that's shaping solutions in early years, health, and place-based investment. Discover how cross-sector collaboration is creating policy, investment vehicles, and delivery models that actually work.
