Over the past month, we had the absolute pleasure of travelling across the country for our Regional Social Enterprise Events 2025, proudly organised by the Social Enterprise Consortium (SERI, The Wheel, ISEN, and LDCN) and supported by the Department of Rural and Community Development.
From Sligo to Dublin, with wonderful stops in Galway, Limerick, and Cork, each event brought together incredible people working to make a real difference in their communities through social enterprise. We had insightful sessions, great discussions, and real opportunities to connect and collaborate.
🟢 Over 500 people registered across the five locations
🟢 Average event feedback rating: 4.9/5 – thank you!
Each venue brought its own energy, and we were blown away by the level of participation, openness, and the clear appetite for more connection across the sector. The Ask & Advise sessions were a particular highlight – a space where we shared challenges and offered peer support and real solutions.
We’d also like to thank:
-
Our guest speakers and contributors for generously sharing their time and wisdom
-
The venues and local caterers, many of whom are social enterprises themselves
-
The support organisations who joined and shared resources and advice
