It is delivered by a community-based consortium in collaboration with Sheffield City Region Growth Hub and is part funded by the European Regional Development Fund 2014 - 2020 and by the National Lottery Community Fund.

This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the development of good practice in social enterprise support and impact evaluation.
