Full of resolve: Have I Got Social Enterprise News For You

Yawning catHasn’t that felt like a long week? I’m pretty confident that the first week of January has extra days in it, it’s the only rational explanation for why it feels like Christmas took place about six months ago.

January is of course the time for new year resolutions. Here are mine, which rather fortunately tie in with everything in this week’s social enterprise news. Spooky.

What’s on at SSE: January – April 2016

We’ve got lots of workshops and courses lined up for the first few months of 2016. If one of your new year’s resolutions is too learn something new, why not take a look through the courses below and see if anything takes your fancy.

For some of our courses, there is a cost to attend. We invest any surplus from these courses back into the organisation, which enables social entrepreneurs to attend our longer duration programmes either free or at least at a heavily reduced fee.

Hope to see you in 2016!

Today is the SSE staff Christmas party. I’d like to pretend that it will be a sophisticated soirée of cultured conversations and sparkling bon mots but I’m not that good a liar. Last year’s party took place on a Thursday with work the next day and by the end resembled a scene from Animal House – who knows what could happen on a Friday night?

So that you don’t miss out on all the gossip and intrigue from the evening I’ve made some predictions about what might take place below…

Nursery rhyme special edition: Have I Got Social Enterprise News For You

Oranges and Lemons

For reasons that are beyond me, this week’s news is themed around children’s nursery rhymes. It just sort of started with the HCT bus news and grew from there into some sort of unstoppable force. By the way, once you begin digging into the world of nursery rhymes, wow, does it get controversial. Plague, Viking attacks on London, regicide – it’s like a vision of the SSE Christmas party next week.

Have a good weekend and enjoy the news…
