Understanding Social Enterprise Workshop

16 Enterprise Coordinators from North Lanarkshire attended the first Understanding Social Enterprise Workshop in Motherwell Heritage Centre last Friday.  The day was presented by Social Entrepreneur Jay Lamb.

Jay’s 27 years in educational settings has included working as an Outdoor Activity Instructor, Environmental Educator, Community Educator, Social Enterprise Advisor and Tutor with the Social Enterprise Academy.

His career has involved a pattern of: having a new experience, learning from that experience and then engaging others in learning about the subject it involved – be that, juggling, sustainable building, canal life, or setting up and developing a social enterprise the cycle has been the same.

Social Enterprise projects in schools deliver skills for Life, Learning and Work in a real-life context.  Students are given a real flavour of the world of work and how businesses can make a real difference to communities.

If you would be interested in attending the next workshop, please contact Lynn Taylor on First Class.
