What? Unlimited - Social Enterprise

What? Unlimited is a new Social Enterprise Company which will allow us to work outside the restrictions we have as a charity, (which currently only allow us to work with 13 to 25s in the Dudley Borough). For example, we will be able to contract for work with adults and also with children, with companies, GPs, and work with other Boroughs, Any profits made through the Social Enterprise will be ploughed back into the Charity so that we can continue to work with 19s to 25s who are not currently funded through our existing contracts.

The decision to form the company was in response to individuals over the age of 25, parents of young people and companies, who were asking us to provide services outside of our charitable status. We were also aware of a wide range of tendering opportunities appearing on the market that we knew we had the skills to deliver. Adventure capital funded some work with us to put together a business plan for the charity and we now have a five year Business Plan.

We have carried out a feasibility study and have a number of hot leads for our Business.

If you would like any further information about the above or you are interested in speaking to us about contracting with us, either on a personal basis or as a company, please speak to Julie Duffy—Chief Officer.

Currently The What? Centre has contracts with The Children’s Trust (DMBC), The PCT & Stourbridge College, and we can provide referees of our work for large contracts.
