A new dual format publication has been released to tell the story of successful social enterprise ventures in Northern Ireland’s capital. The document, entitled ‘Making Good Money in Belfast’ tells the story of ten enterprises, from social festivals to housing associations and famous entertainment venues.
Making Good Money in Belfast
The document, a collaboration between Maurice Kinkead, Sammy Douglas and Geoffrey Ready, all with experience in the field of social enterprise, is an inspirational resource for budding social entrepreneurs, with features on associated projects, information on grant availability, pieces on technology and advice on sustainability.
Readers can expect to find each article written in a non-technical style, with each story told ‘warts ‘n all’, in plain English, with frank appraisals of lessons learned and experiences gained from the social entrepreneurs themselves. The impression created is of a book made to help a wavering prospective start up make up her mind, and a document designed to have all potential social entrepreneurs enter into projects with eyes wide open.
It’s with eyes on this prize that this excellent resource is written, and why it’s been supported by the Community Foundation for Northern Ireland.
The publication is available in print form, priced at £9.95, or as a free PDF download from the well constructed project webpage at www.makinggoodmoney.org, where users can read other stories of success and challenge within the social economy.
