The campaign pack
In the run up to the general election, we asked current and prospective MPs to sign up to the social enterprise charter to help raise their awareness of the work that social enterprises around the UK are doing.
Alongside this, we put together a campaign pack to help social enterprises to ask their local parliamentary candidates to sign the charter. The pack included tips on working with politicians as well as template letters to MPs asking them to sign the charter and inviting them to visit your social enterprise.
- Tips for working with your MP
- Template email to ask your local candidates to sign the charter
- Template letters to ask your local candidates to sign the social enterprise charter and visit your social enterprise
Targeting your local media can also be an effective way to introduce social enterprise to a new audience and highlight the contribution your social enterprise makes to the local community, so we also put together the following media templates.
