School Space is a community-based social enterprise, established in Oxfordshire. We specialise in providing a service to schools by working with them to hire out their facilities for private or corporate events. School Space work with the school throughout the entire letting process. We market, take bookings, prepare venues, welcome guests, clear up afterwards and secure our venues! Schools use our services as it requires no investment, only much-needed incremental lettings income and a much-needed ability to open the school's doors to the local community. From Halls for family events to Media Suites for a business presentation, School Space can offer competitive rates and a range of additional extras comparable with any venue. Check out our website and all that we're doing to connect schools with businesses: www.school-space.org. We love enquiries, even if it's only a tweet or a hello! www.twitter.com/school-space.org

Policy in Practice’s mission is to reduce poverty. We believe the welfare system can work more effectively, and help people toward greater independence, if it is simple for people and organisations to understand. Our software helps people on low incomes to understand how changes in welfare policy affects them, so that they can make better decisions and lead more fulfilling lives. Our engine models how the policies of four government departments affect thousand of individual households on low incomes. We use a scientific approach to data visualisation that can drill down to individual households and help people to take control.
