Social Enterprise is a broad term that encompasses many different types of enterprises, which exist to change the world for the better, by tackling social issues, helping communities to thrive, helping individuals to better their lives, and helping the environment. Social enterprises are not charities – they trade like a normal business would and generate a profit – but they do business and use these profits in a way that benefits others.
