The Kent project is now fully back up and running, with three Market Development Officers (Katy, Tito, and Nicole) available to work with new and existing enterprises, health and social care professionals, and external stakeholders.

Autumn is here in Cardiff – the season of fresh starts, golden leaves, and new opportunities. If you’ve ever thought about offering care or support in your community, our free development programme can help turn your idea into a safe, sustainable enterprise.

Community Catalysts Cardiff recently welcomed back some people who’ve been on the Community Catalysts Development Programme and are now thinking about what comes next – growing their business, taking on staff, reaching more people etc.

We’re excited to announce that the Bedford Community Catalysts project has been officially extended, now running until March 2026! The project will keep supporting small, local enterprises that deliver care, support, community activities, and groups across Bedford Borough.

After four impactful years of local support through Community Catalysts, the Community Catalysts project in Wrexham is now transitioning to being supported by Wrexham County Borough Council.

As we start 2025, what will the new year bring you? A new career maybe? How about an opportunity to work for yourself and make a meaningful difference to people in your community?

We are thrilled to share that Community Catalysts CIC and the innovative care delivery model in Cardiff has been featured in Business News Wales and Rhiwbina Info.

As we step into 2025, let this be the year you turn your aspirations into action. If starting your own micro-enterprise in care or support is one of your new year’s resolutions, we’re here to make it happen!

Community Catalysts is supporting thousands of community micro-enterprises across the UK who help provide a light to the lives of people living alone. 30th July is ‘International Day of Friendship’, and what better way of celebrating this special day than by giving time to call in on people in your community who are living alone?

Fran Lowden bids farewell to her time at Community Catalysts, and reflects on her past experience and future role.

We are delighted to announce that our first Community Micro-Enterprise (CME) for the Westminster project has met our ‘Doing It Right’ standards and is ready to join Small Good Stuff!

Annette, your new Community Catalyst for Wrexham, has started in her role.
