Social Enterprise
A ‘social enterprise’ differs from a ‘private enterprise’ in that it is established to meet a social challenge or need and generally, will reinvest profits back into expanding its socially or environmentally orientated support and services.
Each year, SECAD Partnership supports social enterprises to access funding to grow and expand.
Programmes supporting social enterprises vary depending on demand and time of year.
Eligibility criteria will apply to participants.
