We aimed to develop the capacity of the VCSE sector to support the development of social enterprise. Demand was such that in the remaining few months of the year our specialist (at the time) Chris Jezard advised more than 50 organisations on the development of trading activities.

Working in partnership with CVSes and infrastructure bodies, Chris Jezard delivered social enterprise clinics across Hampshire.
