Lunch With...

Join us this Monday for a shared lunch, co-hosted by the Sheffield Social Enterprise Network (SSEN) and myself (Matt) where we'll be having an open discussion about the 'how and why' Union St has been set-up and grown...




The SSEN is for anyone who's interested or involved in setting-up and working in businesses which trade for people and not for profit, re-investing their financial surplusses into achiving social impact.
