About

The inspiration for this toolkit, and the material within it, comes from ThinkForward.

ThinkForward were one of the first organisations to complete a SIB in the UK. Since then, they have noticed a need for practical advice that is specific to charities and social enterprises developing or delivering a SIB. Based on their experiences, and that of other delivery organisations, they have developed a set of tips, tools and resources for the next generation of potential SIB providers.

About the SIB Provider Toolkit

A note on provider-led vs. commissioner-led SIBs

This toolkit is the first of its kind aimed at helping providers, rather than commissioners, to develop a SIB. Wherever the idea first came from – provider, commissioner or intermediary – the toolkit can help providers navigate complex concepts and delicate negotiations, to develop a SIB with the best chance of success.
