Social Enterprise UK

Who we are

SEUK’s vision is of a more equal society – we believe that social enterprise is our best chance of creating a fairer world and protecting the planet.

Our mission is to achieve that through creating a favourable environment in which social enterprises can thrive.

We do this through:

• raising awareness of social enterprise with different audiences through communications, events and campaigns
• building the evidence base – research demonstrating how social enterprise makes a difference
• helping social enterprises learn from each other, network and share knowledge
• opening up markets in the private, public and social sectors to social enterprise
• advocacy with government at all levels to create a regulatory and policy environment that is supportive to social enterprise

We operate in line with our values which inform our decision-making and our approach:

• bold
• generous
• open
• collaborative
• entrepreneurial
• member-led

In short, we are the national voice for social enterprise.
