Why Enter?

Winning an OnHand Impact Award isn’t just about recognition—it’s about inspiring others, attracting top talent, and showing the world that your company is leading the way in CSR. These awards help build momentum, create internal pride, and strengthen your brand’s reputation as a force for good.

The 2026 Impact Awards open on 14 April

“Businesses today recognise that driving social and environmental impact is no longer a ‘nice-to-have’—it’s essential. The OnHand Impact Awards celebrate companies leading the way in embedding CSR into their culture, inspiring employees, and making a real difference in communities and for the planet.

Year 1 was such a success, with entries from household names to tiny start-ups and a panel of judges across tech for good, academia, grassroots and international charities, and government advisers on social impact. Incredibly excited to see and share the stories from entries in 2026.”

Sanjay Lobo MBE, OnHand Founder
