You ACE training in Italy.
Future UK business entrepreneurs from Plymouth attended San Nicola d'ell Alto (Crotonia, Italy) earlier this month to train with their peers from Greece, Italy, Lithuania and Poland. Dr David Carter accompanied the diverse group to provide non-formal training alongside other European trainers. The Italian hosts were very welcoming and many firm friendships were established while working together over the week, interspersed with visits to local business and historical sites on this Erasmus Plus programme.

Hot news from St Nicola D'ell Alto in Crotonia (Italy). New business methods in community management courtesy of Maria (IED Greece) now being discussed with British, Greek, Lithuanian and Polish participants.

Credit for Social Enterprise. Dr Su Maddock at Ashburton Arts Centre argues that social enterprise businesses help scale the divide between the large city investment model favoured by government where investors rejuvenate an area (realestate becoming affordable for redevelopment schemes as an example) and tacking social deprivation in smaller towns, as reported in her Western Morning News article today. Perhaps now is time for government to recognise the value they provide to communities, whether urban or rural to get people working together?

Focus Groups with Job Centre Plus. Following on from surveys and interviews, focus groups have started to find out how young adults feel about getting involved with business as they are seeking work. A big thank you to Plymouth's universal credit team at the large Job Centre Plus.
