Social Enterprise East of England - A Wiki
SEEE have just launched a new WIKI. It is a great social enterprise resouce, with documents, ideas and access to people all featured on the site. We particularly liked the diversity in social enterprise section.

Information and links from Business Link in the UK.

Social Enterprise Coalition
The Social Enterprise Coalition is the UK's national body for social enterprise
The Social Enterprise Coalition represents a wide range of social enterprises, regional and national support networks and other related organisations. We believe that social enterprise is the right way to do business...
