Flourish CIC

Digital festival showcasing social entrepreneurs & providing online resources & support for anyone in the social enterprise sector.

<h2>The HOW TO FESTIVAL is a digital celebration of all that&#x27;s &#x27;Social Enterprise&#x27;...</h2>...from looking after your finances to your own wellbeing; shared via video content by social entrepreneurs in Greater Manchester and surrounding areas, who are on the front line of delivering change in their communities. Recent research shows that start up &amp; developing social ventures highly value peer support from those with direct or lived experience - so why not learn from local changemakers who have made their own social enterprise journeys &amp; want to share their knowhow, and join in the Festival with your own HOW TO video. The festival launches in Spring &#x27;22 and booking a ticket means you can visit HOW TO webinars any time with access to all areas of the Festival available until Spring &#x27;23.This festival is able to take place thanks to funding from the European Social Fund via the Workers Education Alliance and also backing from Nat West and Manchester City Council which enables us to offer subsidised tickets to people who are currently unemployed or those without the financial means to purchase a ticket.<h2>Festival ZONES:</h2><ul><li>SOCIAL ENTERPRISE SUPPORT featuring:</li></ul>HOW TO get your budgeting basics right, Gurj Kang - Further FinanceHOW TO collaborate, Kerry Bertram - Brilliant Thing HOW TO develop career pathways in health, beauty &amp; holistics, Fiona Jones - Karma TherapiesHOW TO develop the best solutions to social issues – an intro to The Problem Tree tool, Nickala Torkington - Flourish Together CICHOW TO achieve basic finances for business, Moragh Hunt - North West Numbers Ltd.
