Profile Information
- Welcome! FierySpirits is for activists and professionals who are building vibrant, resilient rural communities. Tell us a little about why you'd like to join?
- I am currently conducting an evaluation of a JRF sponsored pilot happening in Bradford, where social enterpreneurs are co-producing public services with communities and the local authority (in response to the current austerity drive). The Social Entrepeneurs are receiving finanicial support from UnLtd, The Foundation for Social Entrepreneurs, and in-kind advice and support from the local authority, making this a relatively unique initiative, which I are keen to share our learning about and also learn from others working in the area of co-production and servcie transfer.
- About Me (areas of expertise/interest I can share)
- I am one of the Research Co-ordinators at UnLtd, evaluating our programmes of support to social enterpeneurs alongside research into the social enterprise sector more generally.
