Welcome to the second Directory of Social Enterprises.

We hope that this directory will be a resource for public, statutory, voluntary sector and social enterprises and in fact anyone with an interest in social enterprises! The purpose of this directory is to increase awareness of the range of social enterprise activity within Dundee. The Directory provides information of use to social enterprises themselves, those that are new to the concept of social enterprises and those that can make use of social enterprises and their work.

Deaf Links are developing the social enterprise arm of their organisation

to provide a community cafe and meeting/training/conference room hire

available to all members of the local community and beyond. This, along

with extending their current programme of British Sign Language and

Deaf Awareness Training to organisations, community groups,

individuals and statutory agencies will provide a regular income to pay

the bills and continue to develop services, activities and learning

opportunities as required by deaf people.

Deaf Links have worked in partnership with Dundee Deaf Sports and

Social Club (DDSSC) and Tayside Deaf Forum (TDF) to secure suitable

premises and create Tayside Deaf Hub. It is anticipated that employability

issues can be addressed through the social enterprises of the No.23 Cafe

and room hire and hopefully job opportunities will be created for deaf

people. Tayside Deaf Hub will provide a wide range of activities and

learning opportunities for Deaf, deafened, hard of hearing and deafblind

people such as computer classes, health information sessions, family

history classes, slimming classes, literacy and numeracy sessions, youth

club, art classes, lip-reading, dance, lunch club, walking groups,

employability classes.... the list is endless and new ideas are being put

forward all the time.

Carolina House Trust is an educational charity originally constituted in 1815 as the Dundee Orphanage, but today operational under the constitution approved by the Court of Session in June 2001.

We provide individual packages of care and support to young people

with complex needs from anywhere in Scotland, although the key priority

areas we offer a service to, as defined in our constitution, are Dundee

City, Angus and Perth & Kinross.

Within Carolina House Trust we are continually adapting our services to

ensure we meet the individual needs of young people. We strive to

ensure the highest quality of care at all times meeting all regulations and

exceeding national standards. We have a dedicated team of staff through

the Trust providing direct services to young people, with additional staff

providing support services across the organisation. As well as providing

social care services to young people in Scotland the Trust has developed

a range of services aimed at offering young people different life changes.

One such example is the Trust‘s Boat Project, where volunteers work

alongside the Trust‘s captain, care staff and a young person with the

trust on the Carolina 1815 - a 43 foot sailing ketch. The Carolina 1815 is

available for hire by organisations.
