Our Story

About Phoenix Social Enterprise

Phoenix Social Enterprise is a charity and company limited by guarantee. The organisation evolved from The Black Development Agency, established in 1991 as a Specialist Council of Voluntary Services to empower minority ethnic and other disadvantaged groups by building up their skills, ability and capacity. This work met their need for mobilisation in society as these groups had no knowledge of available funding and lacked training.

 

PSE continues to tackle social exclusion via projects and activities that are of particular benefit to disadvantaged groups and minority ethnic communities, with an emphasis on education, training and employment. Current projects focus on education services, youth mobility and citizenship rights, as well as providing accessible courses and training for the community. We also serve as a community hub, providing a valuable space for activities, groups and local businesses.
