Social Enterprise Just Transition Fund

The fund aims to finance social sector organisations (for example, Community Interest Companies, Registered Charities, Companies Limited by Guarantee or SCIOs) and communities to transition to net zero, creating jobs in low-carbon industries and contributing to the region’s future prosperity. SEJTF will be a blended product with a grant element of up to 50% of the overall funding request, the remainder will be loan.

We are offering a series of free masterclasses, ’Leading an Impact Economy in North East Scotland’ to ambitious leaders seeking to build a toolkit of skills and realise their fair and just transition plans.

Each leadership session is delivered in partnership with the Scottish Government and its vision for a greener, fairer Scotland.

We are pleased to deliver the sessions 'in person' to provide support for leaders seeking to build a toolkit of skills to help grow and develop their plans, themselves, and their teams. We aim to help you prepare by planning strategies and thinking about operational processes to meet your organisation’s future sustainability, focused aims, and impact.

These free, face-to-face masterclasses offer three hours of focused support (with breaks, light lunch, and networking time) and are led by SIS Associate, Rachael Brown. You will receive support from expert contributors, and each other (in the room). 

With dates available throughout September, October, and November, be sure to book your place at a venue near you - Banff, Elgin, Banchory, and Aberdeen City.
