FUNDING & DEVELOPMENT
Robust business planning & return on investment
CATALYST 4 CHANGE is funded through a mixture of grant funding, sponsorship, self-generated income and our membership fees.
CATALYST is governed by directors and receives input from its members and other sector professionals.
COMMUNITY INTEREST, COMMUNITY FOCUS
Our Business Plan will include a return on social investment approach and full cost recovery strategy in order to generate a level of income that will ensure future sustainability.
CATALYST 4 CHANGE is a Community Interest Company.
A Community Interest Company (CIC) is a limited company, but with some special additional features. CIC's are created for the use of enterprises that want to conduct a business or other activities that are for community benefit, and not purely for private profit or advantage.
CIC’s are one of the fastest growing community oriented enterprise movements in the country.
CATALYST 4 CHANGE
We know that a key route to change is in making better and more creative use of the African and Caribbean communities social capital; existing research, forging stronger productive partnerships between researchers/academics/theorists; community activists/experts and by experienced practitioners and mental health services in both the statutory and voluntary sector.
