Social Enterprise Day is coming up in just two weeks time on 20 November! It s a global day created to raise the profile of the social enterprise movement and show the transformative impact it is having across the world. It s a great chance for you to share your stories, learn more about your fellow social enterprises, and feel part of this community, which is changing lives on pretty much every continent!

Take part in our campaign We know that social enterprises are changing the way business is done, but not enough people do! This needs to change, and this year we ve come up with a fun, creative social media campaign to give you the chance to showcase what it is that makes social enterprises so special, and how they are vital to building a more inclusive and sustainable economy.

How to get involved on 20 November We ve created an editable social media video graphic on Canva, which not only sets out the definition of a social enterprise (in emoji form!) but also gives you space to talk about what you do in a creative and engaging way. CLICK HERE TO EDIT AND DOWNLOAD YOUR CAMPAIGN GRAPHIC All you need to do is click on the above link and edit the final text block to talk about what you do and your impact!

Just enter a short bit of text into the last box on the image to explain what impact your social enterprise creates. You can then download it as a video.For the body of your post, you could say something along the lines of:We re a proud social enterprise and today is #SocialEnterpriseDay a moment to raise awareness and celebrate the amazing work carried out by these businesses around the world, including [insert company name].

But what is a social enterprise? If you ve not yet got a Business Canva account, and don t want to pay for one, you can use a personal email address to access the editable file for free.Alternatively, you can use this image instead, which isn t editable but sets out what a social enterprise is!

(you can of course talk about your impact in the body of your post.)It s a simple action, but if we get enough organisations posting, we ll show the huge diversity of social enterprises in the UK, the problems they re tackling, and the solutions they are bringing! When to post What s crucial to make this campaign as impactful as possible is that we all post at the same time on Social Enterprise Day. Share your post at 10am on your social media channels such as LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebookand be sure to like and comment on those of friends and colleagues in the sector!

Do let us know if you ve any Social Enterprise Day plans. Use #SocialEnterpriseDay and let s take over social media with our positive stories of impact, community, and a better way of doing business.If you ve any questions about getting involved, please email internalcommunications@socialenterprise.org.uk.We can t wait to see your posts!
