Annual reports vs. impact reports:
What’s the difference?
We produce annual reports and impact reports. An annual report includes “big picture” financial information about an organisation, providing stakeholders and donors with an entire year’s worth of information.
An impact report focuses more on the positive impact the organisation has had on people and the planet and is usually shorter than annual reports. It relies more on a “snapshot” than a comprehensive review and is more acute, showing an overview of the impact of specific programs and initiatives.
A sustainability report documents the disclosure of an organisation’s environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals and communicates the organisation’s efforts and progress to reach such goals.

We received exactly what we've ordered at a really good price. As a rising social impact organisation, every penny spend without the exchange of value could paralise our mission. But, The Ethical Agency, even though they work with global organisations, they were flexible to support us and we are very happy with their service. Bret went above what the briefing required, by taking his time to call/ virtual meet with us to provide added support. The team live up-to their organisation's name and values.
