What sort of people are involved in social enterprise?
All kinds of people! Clothes recycling and redesign workshops, anti-gun crime merchandise, street dance classes on housing estates and a tap water bottle refill network:

But there are retired people who are just finding their socially enterprising selves, groups of public sector workers who are coming together to form social enterprises, (with encouragement from the Government!), school groups, community groups who want to tackle a local problem, and people in private businesses who want to do things a different way.
There are some very large social enterprises and ones that have been in existence for years– for example The Co-operative Group.
