About this event

Do you have an idea that could run as a business whilst doing good at the same time? This could be the programme for you.

Our aim is to support people who want to set up Socially Trading Organisations. This means purpose-led organisations that are not reliant upon grants but generate their own income to do more good.

Participants can expect a 121 diagnostic meeting via Zoom followed by a 12-hour training programme to help you:


  • Explore and test your idea
  • Learn business planning techniques and skills to decide if your idea is ready to launch
  • Develop a tailored action plan to help you achieve your ambitions
  • Explore different social business legal structures to find the right one for you


The 12-hours training is split into four weekly workshops:

Thursday 2nd May 09.30 - 12.30

Thursday 9th May 09.30 - 12.30

Thursday 16th May 09.30 - 12.30

Thursday 23rd May 09.30 - 12.30


This fully funded programme is open to residents in Gateshead, Newcastle, North Tyneside and Northumberland.

If you are in South Tyneside or Sunderland, please explore the alternative 'BOOST programme' being offered in your area.
