At this session Orkney organisations can explore how social enterprises are making a difference in communities and why this approach is growing across Scotland.
Firstport will share examples and local perspectives to show how organisations can use business to address social challenges, strengthen communities and create lasting impact. It covers:
- what social enterprise is and how it works
- inspiring examples of social enterprises creating positive change
- the different ways organisations can balance purpose and profit
- opportunities and ideas relevant to Orkney
Participants will also meet other local organisations and people interested in community-led change, have the opportunity to ask questions and take part in conversations about social impact and community sustainability.
This session is informal and ideal for anyone curious about social enterprise, looking for inspiration, or interested in how business can help communities thrive.
