Partner Information
The Barrow Social Enterprise Network has a number of partners, some who deliver The Box project, and others who have funded the scheme.
The funding partners are the NWDA through West Lakes Renaissance, the local urban regeneration company; Barrow Borough Council for European Regional Development Funding, and Cumbria County Council. Together, the project is worth £600,000 over three years. However, not all that money is for grants; some of it will be used for training and mentoring and support.
The delivery partners are Furness Enterprise Limited which is the lead partner; InBiz Ltd; Inside Out Enterprise Ltd., and Firm Friends.
The Box is also working with Abbey FM, the local independent radio station, in promoting local community groups, charities and voluntary organisations.
