Senscot Social Enterprise Café Survey

Posted on August 15, 2019

In partnership with NHS Health Scotland and a range of Social Enterprise Networks (SENs) (including Aberdeen SEN, Glasgow SEN, and Scottish Borders SEC), Senscot is exploring what purpose community cafés play within social enterprises in Scotland, and has launched a short online survey to gather feedback.

This survey follows a series of discussion sessions, which established there is a clear desire to share learning of what both has and hasn’t worked in social enterprise cafés, and how to avoid or work around some of the challenges

As a result of these sessions, Senscot and their partners want to hear from social enterprise cafés, and social enterprises involved in community cafe type activity, and ask them to share their biggest challenges and to provide top tips for aspiring community cafes.

The survey should only take a few minutes to complete; the deadline for responses is Friday 23^rd August.

To submit your response, or for further information, please visit the SurveyMonkey page.

Alternatively, for further information, contact Mary Sinclair or Eddie Nisbet by email: mail@senscot.net
