Social Enterprise Northern Ireland

Social Enterprise NI is the voice for Social Enterprises and Social Entrepreneurs in Northern Ireland.

A central meeting place where the sector can collaborate, share knowledge, information and best practice to create real social change

Social Enterprise NI is run by a consortium of Social Enterprises and Social Entrepreneurs. Social Enterprise NI believes that services for Social Enterprises should be owned and led by Social Entrepreneurs. Our delivery of the work plan creates a space in which all players, irrespective of size or experience, will have their voice heard because it is the result of genuine collaboration for the good of our sector. Our activities will represent all players equally including those community groups which are at the beginning of the Social Enterprise journey.

As a consortium we represent the sector by providing both geographic spread across Northern Ireland, keeping support local but also through our diverse industry areas bringing broad reaching expertise and representation for Social Enterprises.

Together we aspire to achieve an environment where society profits and Social Enterprises excel at addressing and meeting community need.
