Following on from the successful launch of their
Essential Care4Children website in March, Jill and Jasmine Wood are now pleased
to announce the next website launch for their ever growing Social Enterprise
company; Essential Social Enterprises www.essentialsocialenterprises.org
Founded by the two cousins in 2011, Essential Social
Enterprises is a community interest company with smaller multi layered social enterprises
within the group. Their aim is to provide diverse, specialised and inclusive
projects and initiatives throughout the UK. Our
vision is to offer and develop our range of services at strategic points around
the country to benefit all members of the community.
Jill
and Jasmine’s vision is to rebuild communities, especially in some of the most
deprived and disadvantaged areas across the UK. They have explicit social and environmental aims and this
motivates them to develop their projects
that will allow individuals to stand on their own two feet, stand tall and be
able to live a full and enjoyable lifestyle.
Essential
Social Enterprises current projects and
initiatives are being developed to make a real difference for families,
young members of local communities
and senior generations. It is with these contributors views and participation
in the services provided, which is the key to making communities a more sustainable and pleasant place to live. The website will evolve as the current and
new initiatives grow and will include reviews, pictures and regular updates,
