Social Entrepreneurship Programme

Social entrepreneurs have been described as people who bring innovative business solutions to the most pressing issues and problems affecting society. For us, they represent a key segment of our work.

Our Social Entrepreneurship Programme was established to address market failure issues and inefficiencies in social economy business start-ups, specifically their access to business support.

Core to our work in this programme is promoting sustainable models of finance, and providing capability support to help establish and develop businesses, especially those with the potential to grow.

For more information on the Social Entrepreneurship Programme II please contact audreymurray@lecomwbp.com or 028 2826 9973.

Exploring Enterprise Programme

Our Exploring Enterprise programme concentrates on rebuilding confidence and regenerating people’s personal careers ambitions. The programme focuses on the needs of people who have recently lost their jobs and those who have been out of work for the longer term.

Through this programme, we are supporting and developing opportunities for people to enter employment and, once in work, to keep their job and achieve ongoing progress in the workplace. Our focus includes those people who have a disability; those who are lone parents; also older people seeking work; young adults who are neither at a school or college in employment or in a training scheme; women who are seeking employment and those people that have low level or indeed no qualifications at all.
