Two/Zero Social Scale Up

The innovative Two/Zero Social Scale Up programme began in April 2020, and was adapted in response to Covid-19. With the support of Lancashire County Council, we refocussed the programme onto the resilience and business continuity of our cohort of 11 social enterprises. The project was completed and closed in August 2020.

More than ever Lancashire needed the services of its social enterprises to meet the needs of residents and to help our area recover from the impacts of Covid-19. Through Two/Zero, we worked through issues shared by the peer group and our coaches provided targeted support on specific issues faced by the individual enterprises.
