North East Social Enterprise Day 2025 | 20 November – 9.30am
Events & Learning
Join social entrepreneurs and changemakers from across the North East for this year’s Social Enterprise Day Event, a day to connect, learn and thrive together.
From 9.30am – 3.30pm at The Common Room in Newcastle, this event is a welcoming space for socially minded founders at every stage of their journey. Our aim is to help people build meaningful relationships, discover new opportunities for collaboration, and connect with the region’s vibrant support network.
This year’s theme is all about Thriving on Purpose. This means both making the conscious decision to thrive as people leading change, as well as achieving real, lasting change through our missions.
Social enterprises and the people who lead them face unique challenges — often balancing financial pressures with an unwavering commitment to making a difference. This event will showcase how, despite those challenges, changemakers across the North East are finding ways not only to survive, but to thrive: creating bold, resilient, and purposeful futures.
Attendees should leave feeling:
- Inspired through lived experience and expert insight
- Equipped with practical tools and strategies
- Connected with likeminded people working toward collective action
