On Tuesday 20 January, we chaired a VIP roundtable at Knights to look at the likely challenges and opportunities for the year ahead. It's fair to say the year has already been a LOT and it's easy to feel overwhelmed.  In true Elevate style, we invited cross-sector leaders to ensure broad perspectives and to join the dots between previously unconnected organisations.

Elevate turns five… download our report to see what we’ve been up to over the years!

We’re FIVE!! Can you believe it? If we cast our minds back to September 2020, having just been made redundant and nervously pressing “send” on the Elevate launch posts, we could never imagined what lay ahead.

We need YOU to help us find the 2025 Northern Gamechangers!  We’re excited to be curating our fourth annual Northern Gamechangers list, spotlighting the businesses and individuals making a real difference across the North. To make sure we find out about all the people or teams doing great things that deserve more recognition, we are asking for your recommendations until the end of May.

The Northern Sustainability is back for 2025 and it’s bigger and better than ever! We are also bringing back our “incubator within an incubator” competition to pay forward the incredible support we get from Manchester Central.
