The South Lanarkshire Social Enterprise Network (SLSEN) meeting continues in January. This time, the networking meeting was held in EK Collective, a warm and friendly workspace and social enterprise in East Kilbride. We invited and brought together social enterprises across South Lanarkshire to develop ideas, discuss challenges and opportunities, and make plans for the future.

It was a great meeting, and we were also delighted to have Louise Macdonald OBE, the Interim Director General Economy of The Scottish Government, to talk about the growth and challenges of social enterprise in South Lanarkshire. We are also grateful to have the opportunity to work closely with the South Lanarkshire Council to increase awareness of social enterprises across South Lanarkshire.

Thank you to all who attended the meeting yesterday. It's great to meet you all. And thank you for all the support!
