We’re Here - Charity and Social Enterprise
After reaching the age of 55, I decided that I no longer wanted to work in a job that I no longer enjoyed and spend the rest of my working life doing what I believed was pointless. I sat down and thought about what I’d really like to do and decided I’d like to be my own boss and help people more vulnerable than me.
We’re Here was started in 2016 – offering bespoke care service for the elderly and infirm. Engage Renfrewshire helped me to understand what a social enterprise is and how to proceed in becoming one. What I liked about it is that it’s not all about the cut and thrust required for many commercial, profit making businesses. We can happily advertise that the emphasis is on our clients and their care which, being a social enterprise and charity, helps to reinforce with our potential clients. It also gives us the chance to mix with like-minded people - our fellow social entrepreneurs with whom we can share our ideas and concepts.
