GLSEA Accelerator
The GLSEA Accelerator offers support to all organisations and groups operating in the Voluntary, Community, Faith, and Social Enterprise (VCFSE) sector within Greater Lincolnshire.
It does this by hosting a range of fully funded events for the sector, and by signposting VCFSE organisations to other sources of support, both locally and nationally.
All Greater Lincolnshire-based organisations and groups that are operating in the Voluntary, Community, Faith, and Social Enterprise sector, which is often referred to as the Social Economy.
This includes:
Staff members, volunteers, board members and trustees are welcome to attend.
We also welcome businesses with more traditional trading models that have a clear social or environmental mission, such as B-Corps.
Sessions are also open to social entrepreneurs and pre-start up organisations.
Public sector bodies are not eligible for support.
Workshops and events to support and upskill the social economy workforce
Networking opportunities for VCFSE organisations and social entrepreneurs
Online resources
Referral to relevant specialist support providers, both locally and nationally
The Social Economy Academy provides support for VCFSE organisations operating in any industrial sector, from health care charities, to agricultural co-operatives.
The Social Economy Academy Programme runs from April 2026 to March 2027.
In order to access support, organisations must be enrolled with the Social Economy Academy via the Business Lincolnshire enrolment form below.
