With @UniStrathclyde, we delivered a pilot that empowered women transitioning from the criminal justice system to reintegrate into society through entrepreneurship. The funding was used to train + support 26 women, including 13 from Lilias Centre, Glasgow: https://t.co/uF0RGY7yLv

The 'entrepreneurship vehicle' in Scotland risks always facing one direction - away from the masses at the bottom of the pyramid. We believe that Scotland's future growth story will emerge from this untapped potential. #peripheralpower

Gabby: "The main drive for starting my business was I had physical and mental health challenges that meant standard employment for me was not going to work. I needed to have something to be passionate about in work." #PeripheralPower

"I was raising a family and I was a mum, a wife and I wanted to be Shabana again. By the second week with WEvolution, I don't know, something kind of got me thinking, "my goodness, I can actually do something." #PeripheralPower

The pandemic has highlighted mutual aid but how can we foster it? Join us on 23 Feb 11-12.30 with @Matsnoel @WEvolutionUK to see what we can learn from 'self-reliant groups' that create communities where everyone can be a change-maker and entrepreneur: https://t.co/w0O1eV86IC

We support people to start small but powerful peer-led groups that generate connections and capital for its members. SRGs meet, save, rotate leadership, & often go on to create products & services in their local communities. SRGs are a place for people to realise their potential

"Will joining an SRG and testing an idea affect my benefits?" We think it's so important that people understand their possibilities, not just the limitations. #TalkMoneyWeek Our guide: https://t.co/sIZ8L7z6QV

We all learn from our failures but why do we not apply this same mantra to our work in the third-sector? @pamelamarieshaw has been talking with us about encouraging SRG members to take risks and why we should view failure as a learning opportunity. 👇 https://t.co/xrX5H5y3vA
