There are two events in September for Social Enterprises and those organisations who are thinking of adding an income stream through trading.
1. Friday the 12th September: 9.30 to 1.30 pm Wagner Hall. 9 Russell Place, Brighton, BN1 2RG.
At this free event there will be key speakers and workshops for social enterprises and plenty of support organisations on hand to offer advice on issues from funding to growing your social enterprise as well as how to get involved with the social enterprise strategy to make Brighton and Hove a beacon for social enterprise by 2020.
This event will also launch a dedicated website for Brighton social enterprise which has been built to provide resources and a directory to signpost social enterprises, funders, customers and supporters to each other.
2. Saturday 13th September 2014: Jubilee Square Brighton 11am until 5pm
Social Saturday in conjunction with Social Enterprise UK will take place to raise awareness of social enterprise and encourage consumers to unleash their spending power and buy from social enterprises, featuring social enterprise stalls, entertainment and refreshments from local social enterprises. Let us know if you would like a stall.
Community Works Social Enterprise Network would welcome you all along to both events and to get involved in the network.
For more info contact Toby Buckle who is the Community Works Social Enterprise Rep and member of the steering group for the network.
