Benefits for charities

Times have changed and it’s increasingly important to be able to differentiate from the competition and demonstrate your commitment to trustworthy health and social care information.  The Information Standard acts as a powerful tool for positive change within charities and can send a very strong message to your key target audience.

Certification will prove to the public that you produce information that is: clear, accurate, impartial, appropriately researched, accessible and up to date.  Joining the scheme could provide you with a number of key benefits including:

• Future funding opportunities as more partners look for Information Standard accredited organisations
• Enhanced reputation across your peer group
• Greater empathy with your target audience
• Increased exposure and positive PR
• Increased recognition and pride for your information team  
• Enhanced acknowledgment from professional bodies
• Better structured working processes.
