Scotland’s new five-year Programme for Government will shape national priorities: but what does it mean for social enterprises and other inclusive business models working in communities across Scotland?
Join Social Enterprise Scotland for this online member session exploring what the new Programme could mean for your organisation, your community and the wider social enterprise movement.
We’ll unpack the key priorities, look at where the opportunities are for social enterprises and other inclusive democratic business models, and explore how national policy translates into decisions and priorities at a local level.
The session will also look at how organisations can engage effectively with local authorities and other public bodies – from influencing plans and building relationships to identifying opportunities around procurement, commissioning, investment and community assets.
Whether you already work closely with the public sector or want to better understand how to get a foot in the door, this session will help you make sense of the changing policy landscape and consider how social enterprise and inclusive business can play a bigger role in shaping and delivering thriving local economies.
Come along to hear what’s changing, ask questions, share experiences with other members and identify the opportunities for your organisation and your community.
Please note: This session is for Social Enterprise Scotland members. If you’re not sure whether your organisation is a member, or would like to find out more about joining, email our friendly membership team at membership@socialenterprise.scot
