We’re proud to be a sponsor of the Social Business Wales Awards!

We’re delighted to share today that we’re one of the sponsors of the Cwmpas Social Business Wales Awards.

The Social Business Wales Awards and Conference 2024 is a two day event taking place at Venue Cymru Llandudno on the 1st and 2nd of October. We are proud to sponsor the category for the Social Enterprise building Diversity, Inclusion, Equity and Justice Award. Social justice is fundamental to the social enterprise and co-operative movements. The winner of this category will show clearly how they’re building inclusion and demonstrate the impact of their work on their target community. They will display a unique approach to challenging inequalities in Wales and inspire other organisations to improve their commitments to diversity and inclusion.

The Awards shines a spotlight on the growth and potential of the social enterprise sector in Wales. This isn’t just another awards ceremony – it’s a tribute to the tireless efforts being made to shape our future.

Focusing on People, Profit, Purpose and Planet, this year’s Social Business Wales Conference will provide inspiration, ideas, and practical tips to help social businesses in Wales grow and thrive.

The workshops will cover some of the most pressing developments and concerns facing social businesses across Wales. We hope this Conference will give attendees opportunities to expand horizons, build  networks, form new partnerships, and grow, strengthen, and extend journeys into successful social business.

Our economy and society should – and can – work in the interests of people and the planet.

We’ll be there and we’re looking forward to hearing more about the incredible projects and businesses that have made it through.

The fifteen awards finalists, three each win five categories, have now been announced. We share the deadlines below – find out more here.
