Winner of Wales One to Watch Award 2016 (Social Business Wales)
“The One to Watch category, sponsored by Landsker Business Solutions, was won by Creating Enterprise CIC, a social enterprise which provides a range of maintenance services to social and private landlords. This ground-breaking initiative came about from a need at housing association Cartrefi Conwy to maintain its properties to an excellent standard, whilst providing skills, training and employment opportunities to its unemployed tenants and the wider community. An exciting and innovative element of the company is offering an employment academy which offers 12 months paid employment, training and support into other employment to social housing tenants.” – Social Business Wales
