Shape History was started out of a belief that the world needed a different type of agency, one that didn't just do social impact, but lived and breathed it. Today, we are a group of thinkers, creators, and digital ninjas; we are change makers, fire starters and movement builders. We are unapologetic believers in the impossible, relentlessly driving towards the SDGs.

Fundamentally, we simply want to help social impact leaders and change makers of the world tell their story, and amplify their cause. Since 2015, we've grown in every way - people, geography, partnerships, office pets - but there are a few things that we've always championed to our core that guide our vision, our culture, and our people.

Team

PASSIONATE, TALENTED, DRIVEN PEOPLE WHO LIVE & BREATHE SOCIAL IMPACT

Everyday activists

Everyone has their own social passions - every day should be about championing these and thinking like a campaigner.

Frankness

There’s so much waffle, faff and jargon in the agency world - you won’t find that here.

Creative Storytelling

If you want to change the world, you’ve got to find the right story, and tell it well.

Outcomes before outputs

Our approach is laser focused on the impact of our partners - the tools & tactics that get us there are adaptable & evolving.

Culture

We nurture our team to discover their true self to unfold their potential. This is a constant evolution of self.

WE HAVE PARTNERS, NOT CLIENTS

We're often asked "how will you work with us"? "As a partnership" is always our response. We see every project as a coming together of experts - us in communications, you in a specialist field of social impact. It’s that unique blend which empowers both our organisations to accelerate the social outcomes we're both reaching for. Sometimes that means challenging each other, often it means going the extra mile, it always means pushing each other to think big, plan meticulously, and execute with precision.
