Social Enterprise Yorkshire and Humber

Social Enterprise Yorkshire and the Humber is a not for private profit company established to represent, promote and drive forward the development of the social enterprise sector in Yorkshire and the Humber. What SEYH believes: Social enterprises have a significant role to play in improving local economies and delivering change within communities whilst supporting people into employment. That the members of SEYH will provide the drive and leadership for the Social Enterprise community. Social enterprises are wonderful but they are not a universal panacea that works in every community and meets every need. There are plenty of enterprise advisors in the system and we need to build capacity within social enterprises rather than without. Social Enterprises are members of the small business family facing many of the same challenges whilst attempting to respond to market opportunities as they arise. Social Enterprises are wealth generators focussing on sustainable development and the redistribution of profit for delivering social aims including the employment of individuals more remote from the labour market.
