#ThisIsImpact20: Stories of impact in action

May 5, 2020

Impact Summit Online is just around the corner and we’re so excited to bring together the purpose-driven leaders and innovators and celebrate this global mindset shift!

But Impact Summit is just one day: all over the world, all year round, people and businesses are creating transformational change.

Join us in celebrating impact in action by using the hashtag #ThisIsImpact20.

The world is in crisis: ecosystems are collapsing, inequality is growing and the economy is serving the few. We’re in this together, and the rule-breakers and movement makers are stepping up, challenging this predetermined future and doing everything they can to make a difference.

Let’s shine the spotlight on those who dare to do more. By sharing the impact people and organisations make, we will inspire each other to live our values through every level of our businesses and lives.

#ThisIsImpact20 is here - and we want to hear your stories of impact. The inaugural #ThisIsImpact campaign last year received a fantastic response from incredible businesses and individuals across the UK, reaching over 100,000 people, and set the stage for us to spread the campaign far and wide.

If there was ever a time to celebrate these examples of impact, it's now. We must work together to demand a fairer, more sustainable and compassionate future.

This is about your customers, clients and community. It’s about the world, your team, partners and creating a better future for everyone. Big or small, we want to hear about it!

What is impact?

Impact is the positive social, cultural or environmental transformation that happens as a result of an action.

Impact comes in many shapes and sizes. From creating a great place to work to striving to regenerate our environment, every story of impact is unique and worth celebrating.

To those cleaning up plastic in our oceans: #ThisIsImpact20.

To those supporting local businesses and communities: #ThisIsImpact20.

To those creating plant-based foods that don’t skimp on flavour, to those making the world comfortable with menstruation, to those who passed on a big contract because it didn’t sit right with their values: #ThisIsImpact20.

How can I get involved?

Join us on Instagram or Twitter by using the hashtag #ThisIsImpact20 and tagging us @ImpactSummit_.

Tell us who you think is making a difference in your world, and we’ll share them far and wide.

From individuals creating change in their communities to global organisations making waves around the world, everyone has a story to tell. We want to hear about the leaders, innovators and employees doing what they do best, and the companies and governments creating real change.

This is what your #ThisIsImpact20 tweet could look like.
