DMA in the top 10 SMEs at GivX

DMA has been recognised for the second year running for our social value work at GivX 2019, an annual event that measures, benchmarks and celebrates UK businesses on their investment through volunteering and charitable giving. As well as being ranked as one of the top 10 SMEs, we were particularly proud to have been placed as one of the top 5 in skilled volunteering out of all the 111 businesses involved, that included ITV, National Grid, Kellogg’s, Rothschild, BT Group and British Land.

GivX is an innovative, free tool that allows companies of all sizes and sectors to easily track and measure their Social Value activities. We learnt about GivX through our association with Heart of the City and are excited about the positive benefits, the key one being able to measure what we’ve done so that we can celebrate our achievements and give ourselves targets for the future. The annual awards recognise the top results and provide valuable benchmarks and you can find out more here.

If you are an SME that wants to take your Social Value activities to a higher level you can join the Heart of the City programme for free. Applications are open now for this year’s programme. If you are Westminster-based, please see more details here.
