As reported in December, UnLtd’s new social accelerator programme is aimed at supporting ambitious social ventures to grow each year.

They will support ventures developing solutions in two distinct areas:

• Improving access to employment for those distant from the labour market
• Developing products and services for an ageing society.

The programme combines six months of intensive support with the opportunity to secure investment of up to £50,000 for your social venture. This gives you the chance to grow your business, and ultimately deliver greater social impact.

The expression of interest deadline is 14th February 2019.

You can find out more about the Thrive Access to Employment programme at their event in Leeds.
