“We think the Social Enterprise Mark is a great idea. It will clearly identify that what we do delivers a social benefit and although we are much smaller than the Eden Project, it illustrates that we have similar aims as the Eden Project. We also think the Social Enterprise Mark clearly identifies to the public and potential customers that we deliver a social benefit and it will separate Bosence Farm in their minds, from companies that simply want to make profits for shareholders.” Derek Mace, CEO Bosence Farm.

The Social Enterprise Mark is a way for social enterprises to promote their value-driven business to customers. The Mark also aims to help social enterprises benefit from the growth in ethical consumerism. It's a Mark of assurance - of right thinking and bright thinking - for social enterprises trading in South West England.

The Social Enterprise Mark is funded by the National Lottery through the Big Lottery Fund and it is sponsored by the South West Regional Development Agency, The Co-operative Group and Triodos Bank.
