*changemaker (n): someone who works to improve their environment and society by identifying problems and taking creative action to solve them.

We believe you’re a changemaker whether you are writer, campaigner, artist or activist. You might be a charity, higher education and voluntary sector professional, a social entrepreneur or community leader. Perhaps you are a corporate changemaker working in sustainability, ESG or CSR at a mission-driven company. We can help you, your team or your people this year.

PEOPLE say

“The Urban Curiosity founder was an everyday Londoner and far from the kind of mindfulness leader I had been expecting. Mental health is still a scary phrase, despite its obvious importance, but the session was full of practical advice with tips relatable to everyday life.”
