Supported by

A thank you to the organisations that have helped us grow inclusive, trauma informed design support.

Hackit Design began as a lived experience idea. These organisations believed in that idea early. Their funding, learning programmes and local partnerships helped us bring NeuroInclusive Interior Design to homes and community spaces across London.

School for Social Entrepreneurs

The School for Social Entrepreneurs helped our founder turn lived experience into a social venture that could grow and last.

Their learning programme, mentoring and peer network shaped how Hackit Design developed as a social enterprise.

What this enabled

Mentoring from experienced social entrepreneurs
A peer network that still supports us today
