A community enterprise is a community led organisation working towards regeneration and renewal.  Community ownership of assets can build business capacity and achieve community goals, and trading for a social purpose can further develop community facilities and capabilities.

A community enterprise is a business run by members of a local community, where any profits or surplusses are reinvested, thus creating and sustaining wealth and facilities for a community.

In Hyndburn we have a number of social enterprises up and running at the moment.  To learn more about these, clicks the links and find out what they're all about.
