Our purpose is to help communities and individuals disadvantaged in, and effectively excluded from, the economy and the labour market. Our business is the creation and enhancement of local capacity. We do this through helping social economy organisations create sustainable enterprises and developing innovative employability programmes to assist individuals, who are hard to reach and hard to help, move towards employment.

Social Research is becoming increasingly important for the social enterprise sector with the need to report to investors, funders, boards, and other stakeholders.
