Influencing for Good
At Benefact Group we know it takes many voices to make a great conversation and believe we have an opportunity and responsibility to use our influence to make the world a better place.
We can inspire through our purpose. We can bring people together to accelerate change. And we can multiply the positive difference we can make in the world through our giving.
Charity & civil society leadership
In November 2026 we hosted an event to discuss the state of leadership in the sector and how businesses in particular can step up to create a fairer and thriving society. We welcomed influential thinkers, published a new ‘State of Civil Leadership 2026’ report and announced our intention to give £1M to small charities.
Report: The State of Civic Leadership 2026
At a time when communities across the UK are facing growing pressures, charity and civic leaders remain remarkably optimistic about our ability to solve problems together. Our research with 427 leaders reveals rising concern about leadership pressures, funding and collaboration, but also a strong belief that businesses, charities, communities and public institutions can achieve more by working together. In response, Benefact Group is launching the £1 million Small Charity Impact Fund and beginning what we hope will become an annual conversation about the future of civic leadership in the UK.
