Fantastic news for Ireland's Community & Voluntary sector. Very likely to be substantially over-subescribed, nonetheless a great starting point. #socent

We're calling on the Government to recognise the crises facing social start-ups, community enterprises and small charities. Many have received substantial state investment. Crucial the State acts to keep this investment & impact going. #supportsocial#COVIDー19#COVID19ireland

The view from my first meeting of Ireland's National Social Enterprise Policy Implementation Group. For the first time our government depts are sitting around a table with #socent community reps. Engaged, open and action orientated. Judgement reserved for now, but full of hope!
WOW! Joyful Noise close out the night with a second standing ovation. What an amazing evening. Thanks to everyone who came and to @IPB_Insurance and the @DeptRCD for their continued support. But most of all thank you to our amazing 16 projects! #SEDFund

I'm delighted to be on the @DeptRCD National Social Enterprise Policy Implementation Group. For too long we've missed a massive opportunity for positive system change in Ireland by ignoring #socent. I'd love to hear from the community about your feelings on the policy! ⬇️⬇️
26 actions outlined in the Social Enterprise strategy. Beginning with Building Awareness, the main strategy is to write a strategy, although there's a tangible action of an annual conference in their as well as engaging with the sector.
Congratulations @RonanODalaigh and all the other socially-motivated entrepreneurs in this year's #30under30 list. What a fantastic piece of recognition for the role social entrepreneurship has to play in all aspects of Irish business!

Therefore we invite and encourage everyone to drop their pens & switch off their computer and to go out and be loud for our joint future! We unfortunately won't be able to reply to your E-Mails and calls (unless they're about presenting us ideas towards a carbon neutral future).
