2024 Social Enterprise Census

With less than one month to complete the 2024 Social Enterprise Census, why not take this opportunity to complete the survey and get your voice heard.

The 2024 Social Enterprise Census marks the fifth official review of enterprising charities and social enterprises in Scotland. The Social Enterprise Census is the Scottish Government’s regular and comprehensive account of social enterprise activity in Scotland, including the scale, reach and contribution of the sector.

Participating in the Census means far more than simply filling out a survey – it is an opportunity to have your voice heard. Every response is vital. By sharing your organisation’s experiences and insights on evolving needs, you’ll contribute to a deeper understanding of the experiences, support structures, resources, and needs of social enterprises in Scotland.

They are looking to hear from organisations that:

• Earn income from selling goods, charging for services, or delivering contracts
• Have social or environmental objectives
• Reinvest profits/surpluses to further their social or environmental goals
• Have a constitution that ensures that assets cannot be sold for private gain

Join thousands of others contributing to this important source of knowledge about the sector: Social Enterprise Census 2024 Survey. The survey should take 20 minutes of your time to share information about the work of your organisation and its needs. You can review the questions beforehand on the Diffley Partnership website.

The survey closes on Friday 6 September 2024.
