What is a social enterprise?

Social enterprises are businesses like any other, but they exist specifically to make the world a better place. That could be creating jobs for the most marginalised, providing services or protecting the environment.

Social enterprises operate in all industry sectors of the economy, from facilities management, to catering and hospitality, to business administration to design.
