BEN's Got Talent

As part of a trailblazing and unique partnership, NHS Birmingham East and North collaborate with the Young Foundation to host the UK’s first Social Entrepreneur in Residence (SEiR) to support dynamic people with innovative ideas and new solutions to tackle health inequalities.

To date, the SEiR has supported two social enterprises to increase their sustainability and scalability. Both enterprises launched one-year test & learn pilots on May 10th. A social enterprise is a business that trades and re-invests profits back into the business benefit the local community. Saheli Women’s Group will assist women in Washwood Heath to increase activity levels. The second pilot will be delivered by Start Again to run a football coaching programme for young people experiencing or at risk of mental health issues.
