Social Enterprise Move to Wellbeing Economy Division

On Monday 28th August the Scottish Government confirmed the move of social enterprise support from the Third Sector Division to the Wellbeing Economy sitting under Neil Gray MSP, Cabinet Secretary for Wellbeing Economy, Fair Work and Energy.

This webpage section provides useful documents and aids for members to inform, equip and enable us to gather views on the move and the implications for our sector.

We are keen to hear from you to help inform our ongoing dialogue with Scottish Government Ministers and Officials and to ensure that the voices of frontline social enterprises are heard. Feel free to email the team today.
