Enterprising Selly Oak

The role of social enterprise in the Selly Oak District community plan.

Monday 4th July 2005, 3 - 6.30pm.
at Moseley Community Development Trust
The Post Office Building, 149-153 Alcester Road
Moseley, Birmingham B13 8JP, 0121 449 6060

The purpose of this event is to explore how social enterprise could support the delivery of the community plan in Selly Oak District.

If you're a member of a community group, an existing social enterprise or involved in the delivery of public services in Selly Oak, this event will be of interest to you. Social enterprises are organisations that trade for a social purpose. Local Authorities are being encouraged by central Government to involve social enterprises in the delivery of public services. Could this happen in Selly Oak?
