Sign the Charter!

The Coalition Charter:

From the earliest mutuals and co-ops, social enterprises were created in Scotland to address community need. Today, our 3000+ social enterprises are pioneering new approaches to delivering quality public services, tackling climate change and regenerating communities. They create quality jobs and training for vulnerable people furthest from the labour market, as well as exciting career opportunities for individuals of all ages.

Scotland’s social enterprises are an increasingly valuable part of the fabric of Scottish society. The Scottish Social Enterprise Coalition is calling for social enterprises in Scotland to be empowered to play their role in regenerating and building Scotland’s communities, creating a national culture of social entrepreneurship.

Sign the Scottish Social Enterprise Charter to show your support for Scotland’s most dynamic sector. Join us on our journey towards enabling Scotland to fulfil its true potential as a world leader in social enterprise.
