SUMMARY:The King's Seeing is Believing Visit in London\, 8 October 2026
DESCRIPTION:Led by Jean Renton\, Chief Executive Officer\, Sodexo UK & Ireland\n\n\nThis is an in-person event. Attendance by invitation only. \nAudience\n• C-suite/Senior leaders \n\n\nBackground\nThe King’s Seeing is Believing programme is a unique initiative that brings business leaders face-to-face with the realities of social issues and the organisations working to address them. These visits offer an opportunity to step into communities\, meeting the people driving change on the ground. Through honest conversations and immersive experiences\, guests gain a deeper understanding of local challenges\, hear directly from the community and practitioners\, and explore how business can play a meaningful role in creating lasting impact. \n\n\nAbout this event\nThis Sodexo-hosted visit focuses on a critical insight: poverty is not just an outcome—it is rooted in unequal access to opportunity. Social mobility is the underlying driver. By addressing barriers to education\, employment\, skills\, and stability\, businesses can play a decisive role in breaking cycles of disadvantage. Through immersive engagement with frontline organisations\, this visit will challenge perceptions\, build understanding\, and catalyse action by connecting corporate capability with community need; bringing to life why this not only makes good ‘social sense’\, but good business sense to get behind!  \n\n\nBooking and contact details and further information\n\nFor further information\, please reach out to The King’s Seeing is Believing team (SIB@bitc.org.uk)\nFull joining instructions will be sent before the event.\n\nFind out how your organisation can become a member of Business in the Community
