Dear Colleagues,
Louth Leader Partnership is working on developing a social enterprise strategy as part of our commitments outlined in the Louth Local Economic and Community Plan. We currently provide advice and guidance to groups working in this sector and wish to further develop these supports to include:
- Creating an awareness of Social Enterprise and the opportunities provided by these types of services.
- Provide Social enterprise training programmes.
- Provide small capital grants.
- Develop networking opportunities among existing and potential social enterprises.
We would like to invite you to a Social Enterprise Information Workshop to explore these issues and hear your views and feedback on the supports required and to identify the next steps in developing a social enterprise strategy for the County.
Date: Thursday November 30th 2017
Time: 10am-12 noon
Location: Redeemer Family Resource Centre, Ard Easmuinn, Dundalk, Co. Louth
We look forward to working with you on the day and request that you confirm your attendance by telephoning Louth Leader Partnership on 042 9330288 or by e-mail to mary.kelly@louthleaderpartnership.ie
