Our mission
Every act of goodness has a value. We think you deserve to know what yours is.
My Impact is a free tool for anyone who contributes to society but has never had a way to measure it. Whether you give a few hours a week or devote your life to others, you create real social value. This platform helps you understand, track, and share it.
Methodology
Powered by accredited SROI methodology
Every monetary value in My Impact is calculated using the Social Return on Investment (SROI) framework, a globally recognised, evidence-based approach to measuring social, environmental, and economic value.
Our impact values are provided by the Social Value Engine , the UK's accredited platform for social value measurement. Their values are research-backed, regularly updated, and used by charities, government bodies, and businesses across the UK.
Why the numbers are credible
Evidence-based
Values derived from peer-reviewed research and real-world data.
SROI accredited
Aligned with Social Value International's accreditation standards.
UK-specific
Data reflects the UK economy and public sector costs.
Regularly updated
Values are reviewed and refreshed as new evidence emerges.
What counts as impact
Four categories. Hundreds of actions.
My Impact recognises meaningful contributions across four domains of social value. If you do something good, chances are it fits.
Environment
Actions that reduce waste, lower carbon footprints, protect natural habitats, and promote sustainable living.
Health
Activities that support physical and mental wellbeing, for yourself, your family, or others in your community.
Community
Volunteering, mentoring, local organising, and any effort that strengthens the social fabric where you live.
Education
Teaching, tutoring, fundraising for schools, and anything that helps others learn and grow.
