Community Partners

The Prince's Seeing is Believing has worked with over 1,200 community organisations and schools to arrange over 450 Seeing is Believing visits since 1990.

Through a series of visits, each of which addressing a particular theme such as Homelessness, Regeneration, Education and Enterprise, the programme achieves mutual benefit for delegates and community partners. The visits provide community organisations with the opportunity to showcase thier work to a host of powerful business leaders, opening avenues for business engagement in the community.

Questions to ask

  • Are you able to allow up to 15 business delegates to visit one of your sites and meet your service users?
