We generate profit for purpose
A social enterprise is a business that trades for a social and/or environmental purpose. It has a social mission to make a difference to the quality of people’s lives. It’s a corporate business, a charitable trust that and ploughs back all its surplus revenues to fulfil its mission.
With more than 1,400 colleagues based across Portsmouth, London, and the BCP region, we are actively supporting local employment.
As a social enterprise, we do not rely on donations or grants. Every pound we make is used to run our business and generate a surplus to reinvest and enhance our centres and facilities for public benefit.
Together, we make a difference
Customers, partners, and audiences who visit the centres and venues we operate all play an important part in building more connected, healthier and happier communities.
We’re innovative
- We’re experts at staging spectacular, unforgettable shows, conferences and exhibitions, delivered with passion by our energetic, high-tech crews.
- We know how to create energising leisure spaces, equipping our centres with state-of-the art sports, fitness and catering facilities and making them accessible to everyone.
- We make space for people to eat, drink, relax and socialise. Our hospitality outlets are doing brisk business across many venues.
Trusted expertise
As an independent, charitable trust, we have built relationships with major brands, customers, and local residents thanks to our years of experience, knowledge, and expertise.
Our independence gives us the freedom to operate as a commercial business — to create, market and sell competitive, social products and services that generate revenues to enrich local communities. It’s this that makes us a major force for good and sets the standard that others aspire to.
