CORPORATE SUPPORTERS BROCHURE www.noisesolution.org

Welcome Noise Solution wants to contribute to a world where everyone means something, and they know it. We use the power of relationships to support those who feel furthest from meaning something in society.

That is a powerful and ambitious statement, but it is one we truly believe in. Since 2009, we have worked hard to really understand how our work has created frequently life-changing impacts with thousands of people across the East of England and beyond.

We know we can’t achieve that ambition alone; instead, we want to work alongside partners like you to make it a reality. We aren’t asking for handouts; what we are asking for is a conversation, a mutually beneficial one, where your support helps you demonstrate social outcomes, improves staff retention and satisfies customers’ expectations around your social impact.

Contribute to a world where everyone means something, and they know it

Who we are What started as an idea around a kitchen table in 2009 has grown into a multi-award winning UK top 100 social enterprise, working across the East of England.

Our senior management team Simon Glenister, Founder & CEO Simon founded Noise Solution in 2009, fusing parallel careers as a professional musician and youth worker.

Damien Ribbans, Operations Director Damien joined Noise Solution in 2016, with 25 years experience in the Third sector across disability, mental health, homelessness and older peoples organisations.

Semra Sahinoglu, Project Manager Semra joined Noise Solution in 2022, and is the glue which holds the entire organisation together!

Your customers (and staff) care about social issues The Harvard Business School states that 77% of consumers are more likely to use companies that are committed to making the world a better place. Statistics are also clear that there are huge benefits internally such as higher staff retention, as your staff are also invested in solving social issues.

But how do you know who to support? Any organisation that you might choose to support needs to be able to demonstrate the impacts they are having. Unfortunately, this is something many organisations struggle to do well. Noise Solution has consistently been nominated for and won multiple national and international awards for doing just that, with recent impact and analysis awards from both Royal Society For Public Health, NatWest and PwC, Children and Young People Now, and Social Enterprise UK.

How can you help?

We aren’t looking for handouts, fences to be painted or gardens to be weeded. Instead, we are looking to create deep relationships with other organisations who care about the same things we care about.

Organisations like yours are full of people whose skills and experiences are really valuable to organisations like ours. In return, the work your people do with us is different, interesting and will help your people learn new things, or view things in different ways.

It isn’t all one way...

We are looking for reciprocal relationships. Just as your organisation has lots to offer us, we have lots to offer you.

We have an intimate understanding of well-being, and how we can create conditions to foster positive well-being. What does that mean for you? It means you have a healthier, happier, more engaged workforce.

We are a media-rich organisation (and a content creators dream!), and have more impact statistics than you can imagine. We can work with your marketing team to share success stories, statistics and impact to really bring your support to life for your customers and staff.

Because of our sophisticated digital infrastructure, we can easily produce the data you need to demonstrate your commitment to, and progress against, your CSR and SDG objectives.

Most importantly, working with us is fun!

By supporting us, you’d be helping with this...

Youth Mental Health: We create spaces where young people can feel good about themselves, and share this positivity with others.

Improving well-being: We understand and utilise the latest evidenced approaches to improving well-being, and regularly present at Universities such as Cambridge and New York.

Relieving pressure on systems by saving families/services money: Our changes in wellbeing and outcomes equate to savings for families and services of over £6 million a year.

Young women: In a world where young women’s well-being is significantly lower than men’s, we can have twice as much impact on improving well-being with young women as young men.

And this...

Solving systemic issues with digital tools: We’re at the forefront of developing innovative approaches to digital outcomes analysis and have won national and international awards for our sector-leading work in this field.

Engaging those young people facing huge challenges: County Lines? Care experienced?

Those facing challenges around neurodiversity and trauma? We see 75% attendance and over 80% completion from participants referred because of challenges around engagement faced by other services.

LGBTQ+: An important population to our work, we’re working closely with this community providing safe, successful spaces where their voice can be genuinely heard.

Do we fit well together?

Noise Solution is solving huge issues that Third Sector organisations have in demonstrating outcomes, by utilising emerging and existing technologies alongside evidence-based approaches.

You could become part of that important journey.

The societal issues you choose to support have to be ones that align with your organisation. Are we a good fit for your business?

We are looking for relationships with organisations who care about the same things we care about. Are the issues above things that you, your staff, or your customers care about?

Sustainable Development Goals By supporting us, we can easily help you demonstrate your impact around the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s). All businesses of a certain size need to be demonstrating how they are addressing SDG’s. Our work sits clearly and centrally amongst many of the SDG targets.

They’ve saved my life, they’ve changed my life and they’ve given me a new life.

Don’t just take our word for it...
