Do you dream of growing your own social enterprise?
Barbara, Jo and Cemal have all been supported by the School for Social Entrepreneurs. SSE is a charity that helps adults of all ages to start up and grow social enterprises, by equipping them with learning and connections. SSE’s learning develops your confidence and emotional resilience, as well as your business skills, social impact and networks. SSE, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, also connects you to mentors, experts and a community of peers, and some programmes offer a grant of up to £10,000 to help you develop your project.
