SOCIAL

We invest into places, into people, and into the creative industries that are shaping the UK’s future economy.

Our Promise

We believe social value must be demonstrated, not declared. That’s why every one of our commitments is monitored through a transparent framework aligned with ESG and recognised social value benchmarks. Our progress can be measured, judged, and tested — ensuring that each project delivers genuine, long-term benefit.

Our promise is simple: every place we make is a promise kept — a place that creates opportunity, fosters talent, and strengthens community for generations to come.

Our Initiatives

We’re passionate about skills, training, and enterprise — supporting creative entrepreneurship and helping people develop the expertise needed for the creative industries of tomorrow. Through partnerships with universities, colleges, and local training providers, we offer hands-on experience and mentoring that foster the next generation of creative talent.

TIME + SPACE also champions grassroots creative initiatives that celebrate community and creativity:

Kingston International Film Festival (KIFF) — as a supporter we’ve supported emerging filmmakers and helped raise the profile of independent British film.

Hornsey Sounds Apprenticeship Programme — developed in partnership with Far East Consortium (FEC), this pilot offered bespoke training to a local individual from an underrepresented background, creating a new career pathway within the Hornsey Town Hall cultural campus.

Our Ethos

At TIME + SPACE, community engagement isn’t an obligation — it’s our foundation. Every place we shape begins with genuine collaboration, measurable commitments, and a long-term dedication to social impact. From the earliest conversations through to post-completion, we work closely with local groups, stakeholders, and authorities to ensure every project responds to real needs and creates meaningful value for the people it serves.

Our ethos is simple: to generate lasting cultural, social, and economic benefits — and to prove it.

Our Approach

We make engagement meaningful by embedding it into every stage of development:

Grassroots collaboration — placing local voices at the centre of decision-making.
Guaranteed community access — securing open, active spaces through pre-agreed utilisation thresholds.
Inclusive opportunity — providing affordable, accessible programmes and discounted rates that broaden participation.

Accountable, measurable impact — tracking engagement, participation, training, and employment to ensure every commitment leads to real outcomes.
