GSWRA social economy team at the Pearce Institute, Govan.

Social Economy

We all see problems in our neighbourhoods - with education, integration, housing, enterprise and healthcare provision. Social Entrepreneurs are working to do thing differently by applying business ideas to social questions, creating jobs and generating wealth for the area, delivering services in new ways to overcome the daily difficulties of people's lives.

The social economy in the south west of Glasgow is a thriving, developing sector which plays a key role in the areas economic, social and cultural life.

There's an experienced team of advisers on-hand to help support and grow social enterprises. They can help with providing advice and guidance on all aspects of strategic development to operational implementation. They offer workshops, networking events or personal one-to-one sessions to get you on the right road.
