Community Catalysts Ltd
SharedLivesPlus has established a social enterprise, Community Catalysts, which is bringing
our values and messages to new audiences and taking forward our aim to enable
people wherever they live to have real choice of high quality local individualised
support. Community Catalysts works across the UK through local partners to support
local enterprise. It also works with providers and commissioners who need strategic
support with setting up or developing a Shared Lives or Homeshare service.
A major focus of its work currently is with local authorities and health trusts
keen to create an environment within which micro entrepreneurs can flourish but
its skills and knowledge are also being used by a range of other organisations
including regional and national providers interested in unlocking the potential
of staff teams and of the people that they support.
Community Catalysts believe that people and communities usually have the answers
to complex social issues and problems. With this in mind we try hard not to limit
our thinking to the conventional and are always willing and able to look for radically
imaginative solutions.
