Setting up a Social Enterprise at low cost

More organisations are looking at as a Social Enterprise for reasons such as:

• More likely to lead to a sustainable model with a social objective
• Provides more freedom to operate than the classical charity or government organisational model
• Minimises the distractions in terms of short-term profit maximisation that a full commercial model brings

We bring experience of setting up and running a Community Interest Company (CIC), a charitable company limited by guarantee and a regular limited company with a Social Enterprise-type mandate.  We can help you assess the pros and cons of each. 

Particular aspects we can also help with:

• Setting up the legal entity at low cost
• Setting up the Board and governance processes
• Addressing team roles and dynamics effectively
• Developing the financial plan and reporting
• Raising funds - either grants, giving or equity
• Maximising tax advantages
