Social Economy Business Support (SEBS)

The successful supplier will deliver a learning programme and administer grant incentives to a minimum of 70 Social Impact Economy organisations ("Participants") who are in the early stages of their development (i.e., less than 2 years old and with a turnover below £100k per annum). Participants must operate in the Social Economy as a not-for-profit trading organisation (e.g., Social Enterprise, Community Business, Cooperative, Charity, etc). This programme will increase business skills (e.g., business and financial planning, sales & marketing etc) of Participants, leading to improved sustainability, increased trading income, reduced dependency on grants, job creation and greater social impact.
