Baroness Bull (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 17 December 2025

Debate

Office for the Impact Economy

Contribution

My Lords, in launching this new office, Darren Jones noted: “Change comes as much from the ground up as from the top down”. He highlighted the crucial role of people who know their local area and communities, and know “the problems and the opportunities inside and out”. The issue is that these community groups may not recognise themselves in the term “impact economy”. Can the noble Baroness say how the office will tailor its approach to ensure it reaches not just people who have this kind of language available but are truly on the ground doing the work?
