Are you committed to helping people in need or improving the environment? This programme has helped almost 2,000 people like you to start up and scale social enterprises, charities, community projects and impact-led organisations.

This year, the programme will support a further 260 people across the UK with:
• A learning programme
• A grant (£1,000 – £7,000)
• Mentoring
• A supportive community

There is no cost to you at any point.

About the programme
The Lloyds Bank and Bank of Scotland Social Entrepreneurs Programme is run in partnership with the School for Social Entrepreneurs, and jointly funded by the National Lottery Community Fund.

Should I apply to Start Up, Trade Up or Scale Up?
