We are a CIC in the North East of England, running a number of projects around digital inclusion, worklessness agenda and community transport. We are looking for core funding, in particular salary for administration staff. Can you steer me in the right direction?

I have read the information on Capacity Builders for Social Enterprises. Is this scheme running in Northern Ireland and if so, how do we as a community group get involved.

We are looking for funding for a replacement Village Hall we would like to also consider adding a play area for young children. Should we be looking at being a Social Enterprise

I represent a private sector training provider delivering the government's skills and employment agenda. Our training centres are UK learning centres and based at the heart of the communities they serve. I am interested in setting up a not-for profit social enterprise arm to the company to enable us to get involved in delivering beneficial third sector projects at a local level which we are currently ineligible to apply for due to our private sector status. Could you advise me about how to go about setting this up? Many thanks.
