Homeless Link's Going Beyond podcast is back! In this series, we speak to a number of social enterprises about how they engage with people experiencing homelessness and multiple disadvantage in a fair and ethical way. This series is based off the learning obtained through the Fair Deal research and best practice guide, commissioned by Homeless Link, delivered by Inclusive Insight and funded through ‘Access’, the Foundation for Social Investment. This research led to an exploratory Action Research Fund, enabling a group of social enterprises to explore the opportunities and challenges in implementing and applying the research recommendations. New episodes will be released weekly on a Monday for the next 3 weeks.
In Episode 1, we speak to Jordan from Arc Inspire and Tim from HomeLess Made. We speak about their models of social enterprise and how they work with participants, including how they manage tensions, and transitions into paid employment.
