Trystan Jones, Chief Executive of the Community Impact Initiative, who won One to Watch in 2019 and the Social Enterprise of the Year Award in 2024, said:

“Winning a Social Business Wales award rubber-stamped our belief in what we’re doing. It gave people confidence in the positive influence we have, and was a powerful affirmation, which meant a lot to our staff.”  

This year, entering the awards is easier than ever with our simple, streamlined online entry system.

This year’s entries close on 14 July – don’t miss your chance to be recognised.

We can’t wait to celebrate the work and achievements of organisations like you who are building the Welsh economy through social value and celebrating the power of resilience and community in Wales.
