Social Enterprise
In July 2005, the East Lothian Social Economy Partnership (ELSEP) was established
to help support the development of Social Enterprise Organisations in East Lothian.
It currently has representatives from:
- East Lothian Council
- ELVON
- Communities Scotland
- Scottish Enterprise Edinburgh & Lothian
- East Lothian Business Association
It is proposed that this group will be expanded.
Shortly after the setting up of the Partnership a report mapping the sector in
East Lothian, funded through the European EQUAL programme, was completed which provided
the basis of our Action Plan for 2006 to 2011. These documents can be downloaded.

ELVON can provide a range of support to existing social enterprises and those who
think they could become one, including funding advice, information on legal structures
and charity law and information on a range of issues.
