Flourish are bringing their Time to Grow programme to North Manchester, in partnership with Manchester City Council and Nat West in 2021. The aim is to support diverse women of all ages with enterprising solutions to social issues and tackle inequality, unlock potential and create sustainable change. The programme is looking for 25-30 women, to go on a journey of self-discovery and build positive community connection. Plus there will be a range of wider peer learning events and a conference through which we will reach over 150 enterprising women changemakers.
Flourish are looking for women who perhaps are:
- developing or scaling a social enterprise, community organisation or local project and need some focussed time and support to help achieve their ambitions
- volunteering their socks off, but looking for support to gain an income, create an enterprise and longer terms sustainability and security
- taking a career break or juggling family life but thinking about what they might do next and want to do something flexible with real purpose
- struggling to find the right employment to adapt to the current climate or to fit around their lifestyle and community needs
Flourish are looking for women who just need time to think, unlock their potential and be in a nurturing environment that will help them work out their passions and create manageable ways to turn these into a reality. Whether they are developing ideas, or already running an organisation / enterprise, our programme of support, training, peer learning and connection building will help them progress and create positive, sustainable action. On the first programme 12 women secured paid work, 3 went onto higher education and over 50% of the group are setting up a social venture.
