Who we are

We are a for-purpose business specialising in strategic communications, stakeholder and community engagement, digital strategy, social marketing campaigns and evaluation. We provide consultancy services to government agencies, businesses, social enterprises and not-for-profits to help them achieve change.

Our specialty is in supporting local change projects; combining engagement, participatory design and behaviour change tools to help communities tackle local issues.

As a B-Corp certified social business, The Social Deck reinvests its profits back into projects, resources and services that have a positive impact on society and the environment.

What we do

We focus on inclusive practices. Whether we’re designing communication, community engagement, products or behaviour change programs, we make sure they’re as inclusive and accessible as possible to all in the community.

We champion collaboration. We are committed to connecting communities with government, industry, social enterprise and not-for-profits to leverage ideas, products and services that create social change.

We advocate for investment in community-based change. We believe communities should be empowered to innovate and come up with the solutions that meet their specific needs and have the most impact.

As a B-Corp certified business we use the power of business to solve social and environmental problems and are recognised as meeting the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability
