Shifting London is a new initiative run by the School for Social Entrepreneurs (SSE) and funded by the UK government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
If you’re a changemaker with a social or environmental project or business, the Shifting London Start Up and Trade Up learning programmes can supercharge your mission through learning, 1:1 coaching, funding and support. The programme will run from January 2024 to December 2024 and will support changemakers with:
- 8 learning sessions with other social entrepreneurs (4 sessions in person, 4 online) from January to December 2024 to equip you with the skills and networks to grow your impact and increase your traded income.
- Funding with a grant of up to £3000 for Start Up and a Match Trading grant of up to £7000 for Trade Up.
- 4 Action Learning Sets – smaller group work with a trained facilitator, designed to support leaders to share successes, challenges and learn from one another. Learn more about Action Learning.
- 3 one-to-one coaching sessions – with the SSE team!
- Network with like-minded social entrepreneurs
- Forge connections with SSE and its wider Fellows’ network.
- Top it all off by celebrating your journey at our graduation event in January 2025.
