IMPACT 2 INCOME - Introduction to CIC - Interactive Workshop (OLD KENT RD)

Turn your idea into a purpose-led business that helps your community and creates real income.

You’ve got a powerful idea, you've already got an existing LTD or you've got a skill and you know your community needs something different. Maybe you’ve already been doing the work for free, from the heart — but now you want to build something sustainable, structured and fundable.

This workshop will show you exactly how to set up a CIC (Community Interest Company) — a business model that lets you lead with purpose, serve your people, and still get paid. If you’ve ever asked “Where do I even start?”, this is where.

Whether you’re completely new to CICs or just need help bringing your vision to life, this workshop will walk you through the process in a way that’s real, simple, and clear — no jargon, no fluff, just straight-up guidance that actually helps.

• What a CIC really is — and why it could be the perfect fit for your idea
• How to plan your offer: who you help, what you do, and how you’ll do it
• Writing your mission and vision statements (with support)
• How to earn money through your CIC — even without funding
• Finding funding and building partnerships/contracts
• The key steps, forms, and structure to register and launch
• Real-life CIC case studies — the wins, the mistakes, and the lessons

✅ A solid CIC blueprint✅ Your first mission & vision draft✅ Templates and tools to take home✅ A full checklist from idea to launch✅ And the confidence to finally get started
