The SK Manifesto
To reimagine and co-create ambitious solutions which radically improve the way people live and work. With shared purpose, buy in and support. So the best ideas and change succeed and happen.
Reducing the risk of failure, loss of potential, time and resources.
Good for people, places, planet and bottom lines.
Trust. We build it and value it. It drives potential and creates the environment for success.
Human. We put the humans at the centre because it’s all about them. The staff, the stakeholders, the influencers - their needs, wishes, experiences, relationships and connections. It’s people who make all things possible.
Connection. In the 21st century, government, business and communities need to work together. We build partnerships, relationships and shared purpose between them. It unlocks incredible potential, underpinned by mutual accountability and benefit. We understand the importance of fresh perspective and deep expertise. That’s why we regularly draw upon our network of global and national partners, including the Social Kinetic ‘Sounding Board’ to inform our work and therefore, you.
Diversity. Our approach and methodology ensures that even the most difficult to reach groups are engaged meaningfully. Working with a variety of perspectives, ideas and skills brings extraordinary and unexpected rewards. In the digital age, we take care to create experiences that are accessible to individuals of all digital literacy levels.
Joy. We don’t underestimate the importance of fun and bringing joy to work and peoples lives. Even for the most complex and serious projects. Being uplifted brings out the best in everyone.
Unflinching optimism. We focus on the things that are working well and find ways to amplify them. We see the potential in everything. This is what can make the seemingly impossible a reality.
Straight-talking partners. We work with, not for, our clients. We learn, we share, we teach, and we take pride in transferring our knowledge. We’ll always be open, honest, frank and totally on your side. Sometimes we’ll be challenging, too, but only in the pursuit of benefits that achieve or exceed your expectations.
A hack mindset. We help you lead from the centre as collaborator, facilitator, dot-Joiner and empathetic Guide. Bringing people together, hacking (respectfully) the diverse, collective wisdom, knowledge, perspectives and experiences from the people around you. Helping you to deeply understand the challenge before coming together to co-create the best possible solutions.

Based in London & Sussex
SK has always benefited from a base in London and Sussex. Where and how we work is important. Having space in which to think, collaborate and get creative are all key. We have the benefits of flexible spaces so that we can work together, safely and separately in peace when we need to.

Getting there
It is important to work together safely face to face with a combination of remote and flexible working. Our offices are cleaned daily, and we work to the government’s social-distancing guidelines. If you live locally, you can drive (or cycle!) to our both offices.
LONDON.
We work from a variety of co-working spaces, generally minutes away from London Bridge Station.
SUSSEX.
76 High Street Ardingly, Haywards Heath RH17 6TD.
Conveniently located 10 minutes from Haywards Heath train station. If you come by train, we can arrange a taxi service to collect and drop you back. You can travel directly from London Bridge, London Victoria, London St Pancras, London Blackfriars, London Farringdon (all the Thameslink stops), East Croydon, Clapham Junction and Brighton. Trains are quiet coming here, and you’ll always get a seat.
Food is important to us!
In both London and Sussex we have the benefits of an open-plan kitchens where you can help yourself to anything you need from a light salad to a sandwich or a smoothie. You can rustle up a quick lunch on your own or over a conversation with the team.
We love our coffee and enjoy a fresh, barista style brew every day thanks to our much loved artisan machines.
Once a week we have a team breakfast or lunch, and like to celebrate our achievements and milestones with homemade cake and tea...or gin. We’re fond of fizz too.
We’re into wellbeing
Our Sussex office is 5 minutes from the South of England Show Ground which makes for beautiful lunchtime walks and quiet thinking space.
Once a month we have a team ‘Pause and Reflect’ where we go for a walk around Wakehurst Place just a 5-minute drive away or around Ardingly Reservoir.
We have a rooftop terrace overlooking London and open garden space in Sussex and provide laptop screen covers, so we can enjoy some Vitamin D whilst getting on with our important work!
